Position Description
The University of Washington Department of Pediatrics, Division of General Pediatrics, along with the Seattle Children’s Hospital, are accepting applications for a full-time faculty position at the Clinical - Assistant, Associate or Professor rank, on the academic-clinician track. Rank is commensurate with experience and qualifications. Clinical Faculty hold annual appointments that align with a 12-month service period (July 1-June 30) and may be reappointed to subsequent annual terms. Faculty with 12-month service periods are paid for 11 months of service over a 12-month period (July-June), meaning the equivalent of one month is available for paid time off. Anticipated start date is Winter/Spring 2022-23.
This position entails supervision and didactic education of trainees and clinical service at the Seattle Children’s Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic. Odessa Brown Children’s Clinic (OBCC), with location in Seattle’s Central District and the Othello Neighborhood, is named after Odessa Brown (1920-1969), a Black pioneer who was a fierce advocate for health and racial equity in Seattle. OBCC serves as a comprehensive healthcare home with medical, dental, behavioral health, nutrition, social work and care coordination services for children and adolescents. OBCC is a cornerstone and trusted partner of Seattle’s Black and immigrant communities, as well as other communities of color, with a medical staff that works daily to realize Odessa Brown’s dream of “quality healthcare with dignity” in underserved Seattle communities.
The successful candidate will develop and maintain a robust primary care pediatric practice with diverse families from a population comprised of primarily low-income, socially vulnerable and a significant percentage of non-English speaking children, adolescents, and families. A substantial proportion is also medically complex and require care coordination in a medical home environment.
All University of Washington faculty engage in teaching, research and service.
