Step 1. Step 2. Match. Boards. Then what?
Then graduation approaches and the algorithm stops. A recruiter calls. The contract has a productivity formula you cannot solve for, a non-compete you cannot evaluate, and a tail-coverage clause nobody explained.
Nobody is telling you what other vascular surgery practices exist in Rhode Island, what the contract really says, or which lawyer to call. The senior people in your program signed without reading because they had no guide either. This directory is the first page of the map.
What other resources point to in Rhode Island
You're looking at 7 physician-owned vascular surgery practices in Rhode Island. I sourced all of them from the NPPES NPI Registry and filtered out everything that doesn't meet the standard of independent physician ownership. Hospital systems, academic centers, staffing agencies, and corporate-acquired practices are not on this list. Each entry includes the practice address, phone, website, and NPI number. The coverage spans 4 cities statewide.
You won't find this list anywhere else. National job boards aggregate whatever employers pay to post, regardless of ownership structure. This directory starts from the federal NPPES database and filters down to practices where physicians own the entity. That distinction matters because it determines everything: how you're compensated, how decisions get made, whether you'll ever have a real equity stake. Use it to identify practices worth reaching out to directly.
