The University of California, San Diego is committed to academic excellence and diversity within the faculty, staff, and student body. The Section of Sleep Medicine in the Division of Respiratory Medicine in the Department of Pediatrics (http://www.pediatrics.ucsd.edu) at UC San Diego (UCSD) and Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego (RCHSD) is currently recruiting Sleep Medicine Physicians.
Rady Children's Hospital-San Diego is a nonprofit, 511-bed pediatric care facility dedicated to excellence in care, research, and teaching. It is the only hospital in the San Diego area dedicated exclusively to pediatric health care and the region's only designated pediatric trauma center. The Rady Children's Hospital for Healthy Sleep is an AASM-certified Sleep Testing Facility. The Division's nationally-ranked clinical program is expanding and growing with inpatient, outpatient, and consulting services at RCHSD and UCSD Medical Center, participation in multidisciplinary clinics, and delivery of care at regional satellite programs.
As a Sleep Medicine Physician, the successful candidates will play a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of various sleep disorders and improving patients' quality of life by identifying and managing sleep-related conditions. The successful candidates will also be expected to participate or lead in teaching, mentoring, research, or service toward building an equitable and diverse scholarly environment.
