Location- One of the city's trendiest neighborhoods

Bucktown, a vibrant neighborhood at the eastern edge of Logan Square, is bordered by the North Branch of the Chicago River to the east, Bloomingdale Avenue to the south, Diversey Parkway to the north, and Western Avenue to the west. With the Kennedy Expressway (I-94) weaving through the area, residents enjoy quick and easy access to all that Chicagoland has to offer. While Damen Avenue serves as the main thoroughfare, you’ll find a variety of charming spots along Diversey Parkway, Fullerton, and Armitage Avenues (running east-west) as well as Elston and Milwaukee Avenues (stretching north-south). This delightful setup creates a wealth of shopping, dining, and entertainment options right at your doorstep!

As the head of your hospital, you’ll have the guidance and resources to excel as a leader. This includes access to a Medical Initiatives Committee to become stronger and more equipped to develop your practice.
