Job Description

We are currently seeking a Vascular-trained Neurologist desiring a leadership opportunity as stroke medical director of our comprehensive stroke center (0.1 FTE of total 1.0 FTE position).

This Full-Time position has an emphasis on inpatient neurology (24/7, 7 days on/7 days off work schedule) with an estimated 15-20 patients/day. This is a consult-only service, including consults in the intensive care unit, general medical floor, and the emergency room.

The job requires management of all acute (nonsurgical) neurological problems, including acute stroke. We are partnered with the University of Minnesota. You will be expected to lead a large teaching service comprised of residents, interns, medical students, and a stroke APP.

The ideal candidate will be comfortable treating acute neurological issues, have an academic mindset, and dedicated to the treatment of the underserved. Although this position is focused on inpatient neurology, the balance of inpatient vs outpatient is negotiable.
