Position Overview

Understanding the Role

A Generalist Approach to Transformative Oncology Care

As an oncologist at Heart of the Rockies Regional Medical Center, you’ll be at the center of a uniquely collaborative medical environment that blends professional fulfillment with the lifestyle benefits of a stunning mountain community. Unlike high-volume, subspecialty-heavy practices in urban settings, this role provides the rewarding challenge of delivering comprehensive cancer care across an 8,000-square-mile region—an area roughly the size of New Jersey.

Patients travel 60 to 100 miles for the personalized care and community atmosphere HRRMC offers, choosing it over distant metropolitan hospitals. In this role, you’ll serve as a critical healthcare resource for a medically underserved region.

  • Practice high-quality oncology and hematology with freedom to manage diverse cases
  • Deliver essential cancer care to patients facing geographic barriers
  • Develop long-term relationships with patients in a community that values your care
  • Enjoy a balanced lifestyle in a supportive and collegial setting
  • Join a forward-thinking institution with plans for oncology service expansion

A Different Model of Medical Practice

This position embodies a fundamentally different practice model, centered on integration, autonomy, and collaboration. You’ll work in a culture that emphasizes whole-patient care, with strong support from primary care physicians who refer only when specialty expertise is warranted.

  • Join a medical community that prioritizes cross-specialty coordination
  • Enjoy autonomy without the constraints of large healthcare systems
  • Partner with PCPs who conduct thorough workups prior to referral
  • Build trusted relationships with collaborative colleagues
  • Use creativity to solve complex cases with patient-centered approaches

The ideal candidate will embrace a generalist approach, confidently treating a broad mix of solid tumors and hematologic conditions while recognizing when tertiary referral is appropriate. If you’re inspired by the idea of having a broad community impact and prefer autonomy within a tight-knit team, this opportunity allows you to help shape oncology care for an entire region—all while living in one of Colorado’s most breathtaking locales.
