Job Description

The Section of Pediatric Neurology at Children's Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock (CHaD) and The Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth seeks board certified or eligible Pediatric Neurologists to join its faculty based in Manchester, New Hampshire.

CHaD is the pediatric service of Dartmouth-Hitchcock (D-H), an integrated academic healthcare delivery system for northern New England. CHaD maintains comprehensive multispecialty ambulatory pediatric centers in Manchester, NH’s largest city, and at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC) in Lebanon.

DHMC also hosts CHaD’s inpatient pediatric unit, PICU, and level III NICU, along with the NCI-designated Norris Cotton Cancer Center and the Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice. US News & World Report recognizes DHMC as the Best Hospital in NH.

The Section of Pediatric Neurology boasts a collegial, supportive, diverse team of Pediatric Neurologists, advanced practice providers, and dedicated nurses; strong programs in general clinical pediatric neurology, pediatric neuro-oncology, neuro-metabolic and neuro-degenerative diseases; and a center of excellence in pediatric epilepsy in partnership with the D-H Department of Neurology. All Section faculty participate in inpatient coverage at DHMC, facilitated by telehealth technology.

The successful candidates will possess excellent general clinical pediatric neurology skills along with interpersonal skills in maintaining long-term professional relationships with patients and their families. Subspecialty skills and training in any areas are desirable but not required.

Teaching pediatric residents, neurology residents, and medical students is expected, so eligibility for academic appointment at The Geisel School of Medicine is required, at a rank commensurate with experience and academic portfolio.

Opportunities for clinical, translational, and health services research exist for the interested candidates. CHaD provides a rare opportunity to combine high-level academic medicine with a serene and stress-free living environment.

Greater Manchester is often ranked among the best small cities in the United States for quality of life. Lebanon sits on the banks of the Upper Connecticut River, neighboring Hanover, home to Dartmouth College and its cultural offerings.

With destinations like Boston, Montreal, New York, the seacoast, and ski country within driving distance, these are ideal places to work and live.

Qualifications

  • Advanced clinical degree (MD or DO)
  • Post graduate training in residency program
  • Required Licensure/Certifications
  • Current New Hampshire Medical License
  • Current or eligible for ABMS Board Certification (to be obtained within 5 years)
