Description

Allergist/Immunologist

The Division of Allergy and Immunology at Phoenix Children’s is seeking an Allergist/Immunologist to join our team of professionals. This position would be for a physician focused on immunology/inborn errors or immunity.

Phoenix Children’s is dedicated to delivering exceptional healthcare for newborns, children, and adolescents, guided by a mission to advance hope, healing, and the highest quality care for patients and families. With more than 40 years of service to our community, Phoenix Children’s continues to expand its multidisciplinary approach to pediatric care, with Behavioral Health as a key strategic priority.

Phoenix Children’s is ranked among the Best Children’s Hospitals by U.S. News & World Report in eight specialties. As one of the nation’s largest freestanding pediatric hospitals, Phoenix Children’s offers 533 beds and more than 75 pediatric subspecialty programs across the Valley. Our Centers of Excellence—including the NICU, Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders, Barrow Neurological Institute, Level I Trauma Center, and Center for Orthopedics—underscore why families trust Phoenix Children’s for world-class care.

The candidate will join 11 other providers (7 physicians and 4 advanced practice providers) at Phoenix Children’s and its satellites.  In addition to the main hospital campus, we also see patients in the East Valley, Southwest Valley, and Northwest Valley.  With the sizable population of Phoenix, Arizona, the practice is busy and growing. The patient population is varied, ranging from common allergic disorders to complex cases in both allergy and primary immunodeficiencies.  Two physicians currently lead efforts in immunology, both inpatient and outpatient, the latter of which includes participation in the Immunohematology Multi-disciplinary Clinic, 22q Multi-disciplinary Clinic, and more.  A third immunology focused physician would aid in meeting the needs of patients in Phoenix and the surrounding areas.

Education is an important aspect of the position as the clinic participates in the training of rotating pediatric residents. Also, Phoenix Children's Hospital has partnered with Mayo Clinic Arizona for a combined Allergy/Immunology fellowship. Physicians will have clinics with the fellows as well as regular interaction with the Allergists/Immunologists at Mayo Clinic through Allergy/Immunology Grand Rounds, Case Conference and Journal Club.  Physicians have academic faculty appointments through the Mayo Clinic School of Medicine, University of Arizona College of Medicine, Phoenix and Creighton University School of Medicine.    

Finally, the clinic is actively involved in clinical and translational research in food allergy, eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders, asthma, and more. Prospective candidates should have an interest in participating in research efforts.
