Physician – Gastroenterologist
$30,000 Sign-On Bonus + $10,000 Relocation Assistance | Fort Hood, TX
Make a Difference Where It Matters Most
Your expertise can make a meaningful difference for those who have served our country.
Matrix Providers is looking for an experienced Gastroenterologist to join our team providing high-quality healthcare to Military Service Members and their families at Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas.
At Matrix Providers, we believe great physicians deserve a work environment built around stability, structure, and respect for your time. You’ll have the opportunity to focus on patient care while working with a supportive healthcare team and serving a population that has given so much to our country.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- $190–$200 per hour
- $30,000 sign-on bonus
- $10,000 relocation assistance
- 1099 independent contractor opportunity
- Work alongside a professional healthcare team serving Military Service Members and their families
- Lower provider-to-patient ratios designed to support quality patient care
- Structured scheduling
- Opportunity to make a direct impact through comprehensive gastroenterology care
- Work in a mission-driven environment where your expertise truly matters
Your Schedule
The government may schedule providers for 8-, 10-, or 12-hour shifts. When necessary for patient care, providers may occasionally be required to work a 16-hour shift.
The schedule includes approximately 1–2 weekends per month and requires participation in on-call coverage.
During on-call periods, you are NOT required to remain at your residence. You must remain available by a government-provided or personal phone/pager and may be asked to report in when patient care needs require it.
What You’ll Do
As a Gastroenterologist, you’ll provide comprehensive specialty care while working within your clinical privileges and supporting the overall health and well-being of our military population.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients with a broad range of gastrointestinal conditions.
- Develop individualized treatment plans based on each patient's clinical needs.
- Order and interpret appropriate diagnostic testing and procedures.
- Provide preventive care, patient education, counseling, and health-maintenance services.
- Coordinate specialty referrals, consultations, procedures, and follow-up care.
- Collaborate with physicians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to ensure coordinated, high-quality care.
- Provide guidance, teaching, and clinical instruction to other healthcare professionals when appropriate.
- Maintain accurate and timely documentation in the electronic health record.
- Participate in quality assurance, professional review, training, and other activities that support excellent patient care.
- Practice in accordance with applicable clinical standards, Joint Commission requirements, Department of Defense/DHA policies, and facility guidelines.
Most importantly, you’ll have the opportunity to use your gastroenterology expertise to provide compassionate, high-quality care to the people who serve our nation and their families.
What You Bring
We’re looking for a skilled and experienced Gastroenterologist who is committed to delivering excellent patient care and working collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team.
