Job Description

Job Details ChristianaCare, a nationally recognized leader in healthcare, is recruiting a BE/BC Neurologist for a one-of-a-kind fully remote role that puts you at the center of two high-impact care settings - without leaving your home.

As our Virtual Neurologist – Ambulatory & Consultative, you will spend half your shift as the patient-facing front door of our ambulatory neurology practice within two weeks of their call to neurology: conducting one-hour first-touch visits for new or urgent patients, ordering the right workup, and connecting them with the right subspecialist.

The other half of your shift, you will provide inpatient neurology consultation at our 68-bed ChristianaCare Union Campus via a dedicated TeleDoc video cart, working up new consults and follow-ups and supporting the ED team. This is a 7-on/7-off shift-based position with no stroke call and no EEG reading requirement.

We welcome candidates with a background in general neurology, vascular neurology, neurohospitalist medicine, or ambulatory subspecialty neurology — the key is strong broad clinical skills and exceptional ability to connect with patients and colleagues in a virtual environment. Why ChristianaCare?
