Choose this opportunity to join a team recognized among the top hospitals. The Surgical First Assistant provides aid during surgical procedures to assist the surgeon in ensuring optimal results for patients.

The surgical assistant functions under the direction and supervision of the surgeon and must adhere to all hospital policies and regulations. The Surgical First Assistant will not take on any other role during procedures and will be listed as the first assistant on the perioperative record.
