This is an opportunity for an accomplished neurologist to combine a meaningful clinical practice with physician leadership and program development. The Medical Director will lead inpatient and outpatient Neurology while partnering with medical and administrative leaders to advance quality, access, patient outcomes, physician and APP engagement, and growth.

The foundation is already in place. Centra has invested in a multidisciplinary Brain & Spine platform and opened a new specialty medical office building in December, bringing Brain & Spine programs together with other surgical specialties. The Medical Director will help build on this investment by strengthening collaboration, expanding access, developing programs, and shaping the future of Neurology.

  • 1 Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation physician

Together, the team provides comprehensive care including stroke and neurovascular services, epilepsy monitoring, neurodiagnostics, neuromuscular disorders, complex spine care, pain management, and rehabilitation.

The Medical Director will lead Neurology while partnering across Brain & Spine to strengthen multidisciplinary care and the patient experience.

The Opportunity

The Medical Director will:

  • Provide clinical leadership and strategic direction for Neurology across the region

This is an opportunity to join an established physician and APP team and help lead Neurology through its next phase of growth and development.
