Specialist Doctor with General Medical Experience

We are looking for a specialist doctor with general medical experience for a temporary position of at least 3 months or by agreement starting from July 1, 2026.

The hospital in Tasiilaq is a well-functioning hospital that has 19 beds for patients of all categories.

We have X-ray facilities and the possibility to perform ultrasound examinations, an eye clinic with telemedicine, and a dental clinic in the building.

There will always be a surgically experienced doctor present.

• Surgically experienced colleagues on site – you will not have to face surgical challenges alone unless you want to and can.
• A good community where there is a good connection between you and the staff and the other substitutes.
• Good cooperation with other authorities and institutions - the hospital is an important part of the community, and we are proud of that.
• Possibility of possibly visiting one or more of our 5 villages - by boat or helicopter or snowmobile - of course depending on the weather conditions and medical staffing.

• Is curious, open, and interested.
• I enjoy working together with others, including across different professional groups, and I have good collaboration skills.
• Works with great flexibility and independence.
