I'm always getting junk mail from recruiters looking to fill their hospitalist or internal medicine job opportunities. This last once in a lifetime opportunity was a doozy. It's being advertised as an opportunity to practice International Concierge Medicine as a Chief Medical Officer Employed with Full Benefits. Here are some intriguing details pulled right from the advertisement:
- This is "a challenging practice opportunity".
- Any time I see the word "challenging" in a recruiting notice, red flags go off in my head.
- This opportunity involves being a doctor for one private individual and their family to coordinate all the health and wellbeing protocols of the family, including daily health conditions, nutrition and exercising regimens.
- I'd recommend they check with Dr Conrad Murray, but he is apparently tied up with other opportunities for the moment.
- With primary offices to be based in New York, this individual must tolerate frequent international travel, most frequently to Monaco, Switzerland and the USA to develop and nurture a network of medical specialists across the Universe as well as to direct a team of nutritionists, dieticians, personal chefs, trainers, coaches (including yoga, martial arts, water sports, etc.).
- Practice evidence based medicine, be proactive and service oriented with a "team player mentality"
- Ability to perform effectively under pressure.
- Speak fluent Russian and English.
I don't know about you, but that sounds like Russian mafia to me. What do you think? Would you take a position with the mob?
