Description:

Child Neurologist

Build the Career - and Life - You Want in the Blue Ridge Mountains

Carilion Clinic Children's Hospital | Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine

Roanoke, Virginia | J-1 Visa Sponsorship Available

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

Imagine practicing pediatric neurology in a setting where collaboration is real, your voice matters, and work-life balance is more than a recruiting phrase. At Carilion Children's Hospital, you'll join a highly respected pediatric subspecialty team that is deeply committed to exceptional patient care, academic growth, and physician well-being.

This is an opportunity to shape a meaningful career while living in one of the most scenic and livable regions in the country.

Whether you are an experienced child neurologist or a graduating fellow, you'll find:

  • A collegial, supportive team environment

  • A manageable and primarily consultative call structure

  • Strong pediatric specialty and surgical support

  • Academic affiliation with Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine

  • The ability to build your ideal mix of clinical and academic interests

  • A community where you can truly enjoy life outside the hospital


What Your Practice Will Look Like

You'll enjoy a predominantly outpatient-focused practice with inpatient consultative support in a well-resourced children's hospital.

Your role includes:

  • Outpatient pediatric neurology clinics

  • Inpatient consultative services

  • Shared call with primarily remote evening/weekend consultative coverage

  • Opportunities to teach medical students and residents

  • Participation in multidisciplinary pediatric care teams

You'll be supported by:

  • Pediatric hospitalists and intensivists managing primary inpatient care

  • Dedicated inpatient EEG technicians

  • On-site EEG and video EEG monitoring

  • Pediatric neurosurgery collaboration

  • Strong ancillary and pediatric specialty support

You'll serve a large and growing pediatric population of more than 300,000 children across western Virginia.


About Carilion Children's Hospital

Carilion Children's is the leading pediatric referral center for western Virginia and surrounding regions, providing advanced care in a family-centered environment.

Highlights include:

  • Level 1 Pediatric Trauma Center

  • Dedicated Pediatric Emergency Department

  • 60-bed NICU/intermediate nursery

  • 8-bed Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU)

  • 24-bed pediatric inpatient unit

  • 19 pediatric subspecialty clinics

As part of Carilion Clinic, you'll be connected to a nationally recognized, physician-led health system committed to innovation, education, and research.


Academic & Research Opportunities

As a faculty member with Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine, you'll have opportunities to:

  • Teach and mentor medical students and trainees

  • Participate in clinical research initiatives

  • Collaborate with Virginia Tech and the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute

  • Help shape the future of pediatric neuroscience education and care

  • Academic involvement can be tailored to your interests and career goals.


Why Physicians Love Living in Roanoke

Roanoke offers something increasingly rare: the ability to build a rewarding career without sacrificing lifestyle.

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Roanoke combines outdoor adventure, vibrant culture, excellent schools, and affordable living into one exceptional community.

In Roanoke, you'll enjoy:

  • Hiking, biking, kayaking, skiing, and trail running minutes from home

  • A thriving downtown with local restaurants, breweries, arts, and music

  • Excellent public and private schools

  • Easy access to major metro areas without the congestion or cost

  • A welcoming, family-friendly community

  • It's no surprise Roanoke has been named an "All-America City" five times.
