Job Description

Join an established oral surgery practice in Panama City Beach, where thoughtful surgical care and genuine relationships with patients are part of the everyday work. The practice brings together a skilled clinical team, a community referral base, and a case mix spanning implants, dentoalveolar surgery, bone grafting, and oral pathology.

Whether you are an experienced surgeon or nearing the end of residency, you can bring your perspective to an established practice and build a long-term future with a supportive team. Residents nearing completion can access mentorship and experienced peer support as they grow into the role.

A Patient-first Practice in a Coastal Community

The practice’s approach is grounded in honesty, compassion, dignity, and clear communication. Surgeons are supported from consultation through recovery by a team focused on patient comfort, in-office IV sedation, and thoughtful pre- and post-surgical care.

The clinical scope includes dental implants, wisdom teeth, impacted teeth, bone grafting, sinus augmentation, benign oral pathology, frenectomy, and treatment of traumatic dental injuries. This is an opportunity to build a broad community-based surgical practice while delivering personalized care to patients across the area.

What You Can Build Here

A broad surgical foundation: Provide care across implants, wisdom teeth, impacted teeth, bone grafting, and oral pathology.

Implant and reconstruction experience: Work with implant placement, bone grafting, and sinus augmentation as part of the practice’s clinical mix.

An office-based sedation practice: Provide in-office IV sedation and guide patients through pre- and post-surgical care.

A team to grow with: Residents nearing completion can access mentorship and peer support while building confidence and developing their own clinical approach.

Life in Panama City Beach and Bay County

The Gulf as your backyard: Build in time for beach walks, boating, fishing, and sunsets along the Emerald Coast.

Outdoor adventures close by: Explore St. Andrews State Park, kayak around the coast, or take a boat trip to Shell Island.

A lively social scene: Meet friends for fresh seafood, browse Pier Park, catch live music, or enjoy an evening out along the beach.

Family days made easy: Choose from public beaches, state parks, aquariums, indoor attractions, and community events throughout Bay County.

Different places to settle: Choose a coastal lifestyle in Panama City Beach or explore nearby Panama City and Lynn Haven for additional neighborhood and community options.
