Position Description:
Rush Search Partners, Ltd (www.RushSearchPartners.com), the firm of choice for the most
critical physicist searches, has been retained by Lewistown Hospital
(www.lewistownhospital.org) located in Lewistown, Pa to lead the search for their medical
physicist. This is Rush Search Partners’ 212th search. Lewistown Hospital is a 139 bed
financially stable rural non-profit hospital. The department of radiation oncology is currently
expanding its services and thus has created this full time position. Currently the department is
constructing a second vault that will house the latest version linac and adding a Nucletron HDR
(including MammoSites) program. After the commissioning of the second linac the first will be
decommissioned. Currently 25-30 patients are treated with IMRT and 3d with ADAC and
DynArt. The hospital has a MRI and 16 slice Pet CT. You will join a dosimetrist that currently
works 3 days per week. As you can tell this is a very balanced position that will allow you to be
current with newer technologies but still allow the deserved work/life/family balance.

Facility and Equipment:


Locate about 30 minutes from Penn State you are surrounded by beautiful state parks and
mountains that are cradled by the Juniata and Susquehanna River Valleys. The Juniata River,
Pennsylvania's 2001 River of the Year has 298 miles of streams spanning seven counties.
Fishermen world-wide have named this region one of the best year-round fishing locations in
the country. Boating, kayaking, hiking, tubing, and camping make this a favorite location for
those seeking the kind of natural beauty and solitude that only a peaceful river can provide.
Real estate and the cost of living are low and the schools are excellent.

Employer and Environment:


Lewistown is 110 miles from Baltimore, 180 miles from Philadelphia and 30 minutes from Penn
State. With the abundance of outdoor activities and the approximation to what the entire
Northeast has to offer with the very low cost of living, you owe it to yourself and your family to
