Academic / Faculty / Research Physician

These faculty members will join the division of Vascular Neurology, a dynamic division of faculty members with broad clinical and research interests in cerebrovascular disease. The Yale Stroke and Vascular Division supports and leads the Yale New Haven Comprehensive Stroke Center which oversees high volume, high complexity, inpatient, telestroke and outpatient services.

Vascular neurologists hold teaching appointments at the Yale School of Medicine and are clinical faculty within Yale Medicine. They provide outpatient consultations in a multidisciplinary setting at the Yale Physician's Building or at the VAMC in West Haven, CT. Consultative services are also provided at Gaylord Hospital, one of the major rehabilitation hospitals in Connecticut. Yale conducts numerous acute and secondary stroke prevention clinical research trials, including those sponsored by industry and the National Institutes of Health.

The stroke program was certified as a Primary Stroke Center by the Joint Commission in 2005 and by the Connecticut Department of Public Health in 2008. Its mission is to provide safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, efficient and equitable care to patients with cerebrovascular disease at Yale-New Haven Hospital. The Stroke Center serves as a primary referral center for acute stroke management and has multidisciplinary outpatient stroke clinics for secondary stroke prevention and stroke recovery. We are a Regional Coordinating Center for NIH StrokeNet and participate in clinical trials supported by the NINDS, industry and our own faculty.

Fairfield County, Connecticut is a beautiful, safe and convenient location with ready access to the shoreline, New Haven and New York City. Yale University further offers the benefits of the academic environment, collegiate events, literary and art collections, and performance art. Proximity to New York, Boston, and the rest of New England offers additional opportunities and we are happy to work with faculty to provide opportunities to practice in locations that meet their needs.
