Which companies hire orthopedic surgeons in Florida?
Employers hiring orthopedic surgeons in Florida right now include TOC, The Orthopaedic Institute, and Concentra, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Florida's large multispecialty hospital networks and orthopedic-focused group practices drive consistent demand for both employed and partnership-track positions across the state.
Which Florida cities have the most orthopedic surgeon jobs?
Palm Coast, Panama City, and Jacksonville have the most orthopedic surgeon openings in Florida, reflecting the concentration of major hospital systems, trauma centers, and sports medicine programs that anchor each metro's surgical job market. Smaller or suburban markets on the list typically appear because a large regional health system or orthopedic group practice is actively expanding in that area.
Are there remote orthopedic surgeon jobs in Florida?
Yes, but they're rare. Orthopedic surgery is an inherently hands-on, facility-based specialty, so the vast majority of roles require on-site presence. About 0% of orthopedic surgeon openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions are almost exclusively in telemedicine consultation, second-opinion review, or utilization management rather than active surgical practice.

The most realistic entry path is applying for a junior attending or new-graduate position immediately following residency, as large Florida systems such as AdventHealth and HCA Florida Healthcare regularly recruit graduating residents into employed physician roles. Completing a subspecialty fellowship strengthens competitiveness significantly. Candidates without independent experience can also pursue locum tenens assignments through Florida-based staffing groups to build surgical volume before seeking permanent employment.
