This assignment invites you to impact lives, perfect your craft in the operating room, and experience the charm of a town tucked in the Green Mountains. Picture mornings spent amid maple-scented air and austere mountain vistas, afternoons collaborating with a multidisciplinary team, and evenings unwinding in quaint New England settings. Vermont’s Middlebury blends small-town warmth with world-class care, offering peaceful neighborhoods, excellent schools, local farms, and access to outdoor adventures—from hiking along pastoral trails to winter sports on nearby slopes. And for the adventurous, the opportunity to engage in assignments across diverse locations in the U.S. ensures you can broaden your professional horizons while maintaining a steady rhythm and support.
