Job Description
The Inova Schar Cancer Institute is seeking an outstanding candidate to fill the position of Neuro-oncologist for our Neuro-Oncology program. This physician will have expertise in the care of primary and metastatic brain malignancies and cancer neurology. The role is primarily clinical care, focused on outpatient care with some inpatient consults and oversight of inpatient chemotherapy, shared with the other neuro-oncologist. There are opportunities to participate in clinical trials, clinical research projects, and teaching of fellows, residents, and medical students. The candidate must be board certified or board eligible in neuro-oncology through UCNS. The candidate will join a multidisciplinary team with another neuro-oncologist, neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists, neuro-oncology social worker, clinical research coordinator, and neuro-oncology nurse navigator. The Neuro-oncologist will also interact with resources available through the Inova Neurosciences. We value collaboration, collegiality, and a commitment to excellence and serving a diverse population.
Established with $400M of funding, including a single $50M philanthropic gift, the state-of-the-art 340,000-square-foot cancer research and treatment institute combines a strong commitment to personalized and excellent patient care with the research and clinical strengths of a highly regarded academic medical center. Collaborating with regional clinical and scientific partners, including the University of Virginia and the National Cancer Institute, the Institute advances clinical and translational research to improve the care for all cancer patients. The Inova Schar Cancer Institute strives to become one of the top cancer centers in the country in the coming decade.
Inova is an established, fiscally strong non-profit health care system that is growing to meet the needs of our diverse and rapidly expanding region in Northern Virginia and the greater Washington DC metropolitan area. The Inova Schar Cancer Institute is located across the street from Inova’s flagship hospital at its Fairfax Medical Campus (833 beds), which is less than 10 miles outside of Washington, D.C., in Falls Church, VA. This level one trauma center hosts its own residency training programs in Internal Medicine, Surgery, Neurosurgery, Pediatrics, Family Medicine, and Ob/Gyn. About a third of the 3rd and 4th year medical students from the University of Virginia Medical School spend their entire clinical years at the Campus as well. The Inova Health System is comprised of five hospitals with more than 1,800 licensed beds and 16,000 employees. This $3.8 billion system has been recognized for its success and commitment to quality care, including: the first and only hospital system in the DC area to receive 5 out of 5 stars for quality by CMS; ranked by US News & World report and Becker’s Hospital Review as the best hospital in the DC area; and, the Gold Seal of approval by the Joint Commission in numerous fields, including joint replacement, spine surgery, NICU, and cardiology care. Financial analysts awarded Inova an “AA+” S&P rating.
To apply to this position, please send a cover letter and C.V. to Adam Cohen, MD, MS, Co-director of Neuro-oncology, ISCI, c/o Rachel Hill, Physician Recruitment, at Rachel.Hill@inova.org.
