Geriatric Psychiatrist

The Department of Psychiatry at The MetroHealth System, a major teaching hospital of Case Western Reserve University, is seeking a board-certified (or board eligible) Geriatric Psychiatrist, who will provide clinical care for adult patients, teaching of residents and students and have the opportunity for academic and career development at the largest medical research institution in Ohio and a top 1% ranked hospital.

Because of the strong commitment to the needs of the community, the MetroHealth System is building a new 112-bed behavioral health hospital in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, with specialized units including: adolescent, geropsychiatry, adult psychiatric intensive care, adult dual diagnosis, adult thought disorders and adult mood disorders. Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient treatment programs will be attached to this hospital as well.

The MetroHealth System offers a competitive compensation package, health insurance, paid time off, liability insurance, an academic appointment to the Case Western Reserve School of Medicine faculty at a rank commensurate with experience, CME opportunities, malpractice coverage, an impressive pension program with a generous employer match through the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) and excellent environment for faculty members to develop a strong clinical and research program (both basic and clinical).

As a Geriatric Psychiatrist, you have a number of opportunities to consider. However, few will offer you the personal and professional satisfaction and the opportunity to work in a safety-net academic, community integrated medical system that is leading the way to a healthier community through service, teaching, discovery, and teamwork. We have exceptional clinicians with extraordinary hearts, and we are looking for more to join us.
