The neurointensivist will be an integral part of our trauma and stroke team, managing various pathologies such as subarachnoid hemorrhage, intracranial hemorrhage, diffuse axonal injury, closed head injury, status epilepticus, ischemic stroke, anoxic brain injury, and encephalopathies in a critical care setting.

You will collaborate closely with 3 other Neurocritical Care physicians, 6 Neurosurgeons, 6 Trauma Surgeons, 2 Stroke Neurologists, 6 Neurohospitalists, and 3 Mid-level providers. Our hospital boasts a full in-house hospitalist, trauma, and anesthesia program, along with round-the-clock Critical Care support for late-night intubations and central lines.

  • A secure salaried position.
  • Light Stroke call, with an average of 2 stroke alert activations per call, resulting in 8 stroke calls every 4 weeks. Stroke calls always coincide with regular neuro ICU days.
