I am rather torn between calling this a:
"hospital physician" or "hospital technician"
I have not heard of a "hospital physicist" but perhaps someone out there has some idea.
I am afraid giving the sentence would not help as it is simple a help wanted advertisement for a cancer clinic saying they need a "sjukhusfysiker"
