Job Description

This role combines executive medical leadership with active clinical practice, making it well suited for an experienced physician who values both direct patient care and the opportunity to shape healthcare quality, governance, and operational performance.

Working closely with site leadership and clinical teams, you'll oversee medical services across the program while helping ensure safe, compliant, and effective healthcare delivery. You'll guide clinical governance initiatives, support physician and provider performance, and maintain oversight of patient care standards, emergency preparedness, and organizational medical operations.

• Order, perform, and interpret diagnostic testing; prescribe medications and therapies; maintain continuity of care; and ensure accurate, complete medical records.
• Support workforce medical clearance compliance, participate in mass casualty exercises and emergency response activities, and provide liaison support to external healthcare organizations when continuity of care requires coordination.

This is a role for a physician leader who is ready to balance clinical practice with meaningful responsibility for healthcare quality, governance, and organizational impact.
