About Specialty Clinical Solutions

Specialty Clinical Solutions partners with experienced perfusionists to provide contract and interim coverage at hospitals and cardiac surgery programs. As part of the SpecialtyCare family, we connect independent perfusionists with assignments at established, well-supported programs — giving you the flexibility of contract work with the backing of an organization that knows perfusion.

The Opportunity

We are building our network of Texas-licensed perfusionists ahead of upcoming contract needs expected to begin in early 2027. If you hold an active Texas perfusionist license and are open to travel or 1099 assignments, we would like to connect now so you are first in line as assignments are confirmed.

This is a pipeline opening: assignment start dates, locations and lengths will be shared as needs are finalized, and placement may not be immediate.
