Physician Neurology - Competitive Salary

Job Description

Build your career around inpatient neurology in a program intentionally designed to give Neurohospitalists a dedicated role in the future of neuroscience care. This opportunity is part of a strategic transition away from the traditional combined inpatient/outpatient model, creating a focused service for physicians who genuinely enjoy hospital-based consultative medicine. Neurosciences remain an important area of growth, giving the incoming physician the chance to contribute ideas and help shape the program as demand continues to increase. Quality patient care takes priority over volume-driven metrics, with leadership seeking a physician who values communication and strong relationships across specialties. Both newly trained and experienced neurologists are welcome, with optional teaching available for those interested in maintaining an academic component to their career. For a neurologist who wants meaningful inpatient work without carrying an outpatient panel, this position offers a highly focused path forward.
