Job Description:
MD/DO - Cardiologist Different by Nature The Community - Salt
Lake City, UT Utah's capital city, and the only one with an
international airport, emanates a small-town feel. Downtown is easy
to get around and - outside of entertainment enclaves - come
evening it's fairly quiet. You'd never know 1.2 million people live
in the metro area. Yes, this is the Mormon equivalent of Vatican
City, and the LDS owns a lot of land, but less than half the town's
population are church members - the university and the
great-outdoors-at-your-doorstep vibe have attracted a wide range of
residents. A liberal spirit is evident everywhere from the
coffeehouses to the yoga classes, where elaborate tattoos are the
norm. Foodies will find much to love among the multitude of
international and organic dining options (think Himalayan and East
African). And when the trail beckons, you're a scant 45 minutes
from the Wasatch Mountains' brilliant hiking and skiing. Friendly
people, great food and outdoor adventure - what could be better?
