Job Description

Job Opportunity: Full-Time Psychiatrist

Our organization is on the lookout for a dedicated psychiatrist who is enthusiastic about patient care and possesses a strong commitment to excellence, particularly in the field of transplant psychiatry. This full-time outpatient role will primarily involve:

• Conducting pre-transplant psychiatric evaluations
• Participating in transplant selection committee meetings
• Providing post-transplant treatment for psychiatric disorders

We are proud to be the largest solid organ transplant facility in the region, with plans to expand our services to include a lung transplant program alongside our established kidney, liver, and heart transplant programs. Our department is dedicated to delivering evidence-based and personalized mental health services to medically complex populations.

The ideal candidate will become part of a vibrant and collaborative work environment, joining a dynamic clinical team that includes psychiatrists, clinical health psychologists, and neuropsychologists. This academic role also offers the chance to teach medical students, residents, and fellows, along with opportunities to engage in clinical research.

Our approach to care is rooted in the Mayo model, which emphasizes multidisciplinary teams that provide evidence-based biological and psychosocial treatments in a compassionate, patient-centered atmosphere. While fellowship training and certification in Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry or Addiction Psychiatry is preferred, it is not mandatory. Please note that our practice is primarily outpatient, with the exception of a hospital consultation-liaison service that operates on a rotational basis, including cross-coverage and call responsibilities.
