Full Description

This a Full Remote job, the offer is available from: United States, California (USA), New York (USA), Oregon (USA) Teaching hospitals operate on a model that's remained largely unchanged for over a century: residents learn medicine not through lectures alone, but through supervised practice alongside attending physicians who've seen thousands of cases. The attending physician doesn't just demonstrate technique—they narrate their clinical reasoning, point out subtle patterns the resident would miss, and know when to let the resident struggle versus when to intervene. This model works because medicine recognized early that expertise requires both knowledge transfer and judgment development, and judgment only develops through guided repetition. The best teaching hospitals obsess over the quality of this supervision, understanding that a resident's third year is shaped entirely by whether their attending physicians treat teaching as real work or an afterthought.
