Position description

The Department of Pediatrics at the University of California, San Diego () is committed to academic excellence within the faculty, staff, and student body. We are seeking both part-time and full-time General Pediatricians to join our Division of Academic General Pediatrics.

The Division has clinical practices in several locations, all serving as UCSD School of Medicine clinical trainee teaching sites, including medical students, residents, and fellows. This includes a new partnership with a large federally qualified health center (FQHC) system that serves many communities in San Diego. At all sites, we provide outpatient medical care for infants, children, adolescents, and young adults aged from birth to 21 years. Our team is comprised of faculty committed to providing and teaching evidence-based clinical care. The Division has existing sites with co-located clinics focused on caring for medically fragile patients, the UCSD Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics faculty group practice, and offers visits for breastfeeding support for premature infants, as well as travel visits.

The successful candidates will provide high-quality healthcare to infants, children, and adolescents while supporting the mission of teaching, research, and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. The successful candidates will supervise and teach residents and fellows, attend division meetings, engage in program planning, and develop educational materials for providers and patients. The position requires flexibility with work hours, shifts, on-call duties, and locations to meet the division's 24-hour needs.

The appropriate series and appointment at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level will be based on the candidate's background and experience.
