Call at Delnor is four or five weeks a year. How does that fit your life?

What would you do

About the work

How do you manage a patient with difficult to control diabetes?

What they are checking: Whether they manage hard-to-control diabetes thoughtfully, since diabetes makes up most of a community endocrinology panel day to day.

What other endocrine conditions do you most want to be seeing?

What they are checking: The posting names managing a variety of endocrine disorders, and interests vary.
