Job Description
Join a thriving, well-established practice in Watertown, NY! OSNNY is seeking a skilled, motivated Periodontist to provide exceptional patient care in a modern, technology-driven environment with a loyal referral base and outstanding reputation for clinical excellence.
We welcome applicants from any U.S. region and Canada (U.S. licensure, or eligibility, is required) who are open to relocating to New York.
Why OSNNY Stands Out
Established Referral Network: Enjoy an immediate, consistent flow of implant, regenerative, and soft-tissue cases supported by strong relationships with local general dentists and specialists.
State-of-the-Art Technology: Work in a digitally integrated, efficiency-focused environment equipped with contemporary tools and systems to support optimal clinical outcomes and patient comfort.
Collaborative Team: Work alongside experienced clinicians and dedicated staff who take pride in providing exceptional care and support in a positive, efficient environment.
Growth & Ownership Path: Clear opportunity for long-term partnership or ownership within a doctor-led organization that values autonomy and excellence.
Relocation Support: Full relocation and licensure assistance available for Periodontists joining us in New York.
What Watertown Has to Offer
Affordable Small-Town Living: Enjoy a low cost of living, spacious homes, and a tight-knit community — perfect for professionals seeking balance and stability.
Gateway to the Outdoors: Minutes from the Thousand Islands, Lake Ontario, and the Adirondack Mountains, offering world-class boating, fishing, hiking, and winter sports.
Strong Patient Base & Regional Demand: Serves as the healthcare hub for Jefferson County and surrounding rural regions, creating consistent patient flow and professional opportunity.
Convenient Regional Access: Located along I-81 — just 70 miles north of Syracuse and near the Canadian border for quick trips to Kingston and Ottawa.
Family-Friendly Community: Excellent schools, safe neighborhoods, and an active local culture with seasonal festivals and community events.
Easy Travel Access: The Watertown International Airport (ART) offers direct flights to major hubs, and Syracuse Hancock International Airport is less than 90 minutes away.
Four-Season Lifestyle: Experience all four seasons — from colorful autumns to snow-filled winters — in a scenic, peaceful setting.
