About the Area

With its medical center northwest of Los Angeles and its scope reaching as far north as Ventura, the Woodland Hills/Ventura County service area offers an impressive range of experiences. Great weather enables year-round surfing, hiking, golf, and other outdoor sports. And beyond our area are Los Angeles to the south and Santa Barbara to the north, for world-class dining, entertainment, and cultural activities.

Working Here

The Woodland Hills/Ventura County area is geographically diverse—reaching from the San Fernando Valley north of Los Angeles to Ventura County along the Pacific Ocean.

Our area offers both the urban/suburban experience of the Woodland Hills Medical Center and the distinctly bi-cultural, small-town feel of the Ventura County medical office.

Yet, at our core is one culture—characterized by the partnering and teamwork of our medical staff, the high level of physician engagement, and the focus on maintaining a highly evolved model of care. A family medicine residency program at the medical center adds an academic vibrancy.

Strong emphasis is placed on wellness and interaction, with formal and informal events, potlucks, and other social activities. A robust on-boarding program ensures that new hires can quickly integrate, professionally and personally, forming lasting bonds and furthering the area’s collegial environment.

Equal Employment Opportunity

External hires must pass a background check/drug screen. Qualified applicants with arrest and/or conviction records will be considered for employment in a manner consistent with Federal, state and local laws, including but not limited to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, protected veteran, or disability status.

Key Responsibilities

The nephrologist will provide comprehensive care including outpatient dialysis rounding, ambulatory clinic services, and inpatient hospital management. They will work within a team-based model to maintain high standards of patient care across multiple medical facilities.

Requirements

Candidates must be Board Certified or Board Eligible in Nephrology. The role requires the ability to work in both clinical and hospital settings within the Woodland Hills and Oxnard service areas.
