Why This Texas Emergency Physician Role Stands Out

Few emergency medicine openings combine a strong hourly rate with open board requirements. This assignment does both. At $330/hour, you are paid competitively for every shift you work.

It is also one of the more accessible emergency medicine jobs in Texas. The facility will consider ABEM board-certified physicians as well as non-ABEM physicians with solid emergency department experience.

That makes this a strong fit whether you are a career emergency physician or an experienced ED doctor who trained through another pathway.

What You Will Do in the Emergency Department

You will join an established ED team and take ownership of patients from triage through disposition. Typical duties include:

• Evaluating, stabilizing, and treating patients of all acuity levels, from minor injuries to critical emergencies
• Performing emergency procedures within your privileges, such as airway management, central lines, and laceration repair
• Ordering and interpreting labs, imaging, and ECGs to reach fast, accurate diagnoses
• Coordinating admissions, transfers, and consults with hospitalists and specialists
• Working closely with nurses, advanced practice providers, and ancillary staff to keep patient flow moving
• Completing clear, timely documentation in the facility’s electronic health record

Who Should Apply: ABEM and Non-ABEM Emergency Physicians

We are looking for a confident, adaptable Texas emergency physician who can hit the ground running. Ideal candidates will have:

• MD or DO degree
• Board certification through the American Board of Emergency Medicine (ABEM), or non-ABEM status with relevant emergency department experience
• An active Texas medical license, or eligibility to obtain one through the Texas Medical Board
• Current DEA registration and life support certifications as required by the facility (for example ACLS, PALS, and ATLS)
• A clean malpractice history and the ability to pass hospital credentialing

Final eligibility depends on the facility’s credentialing standards. Our recruiters will review your background with you before submission, so you know where you stand from the start.

Compensation and Assignment Details

This Texas emergency physician opportunity pays $330 per hour, for ABEM and non-ABEM physicians alike.

Shift lengths, schedule, start date, and facility specifics are shared directly with qualified candidates during the screening call. Ask your recruiter about malpractice coverage, travel, and lodging arrangements for this assignment.
