We are looking for a dedicated and compassionate Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Physician to join our multidisciplinary healthcare team. As a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R), also known as a physiatrist, you will focus on enhancing and restoring functional ability and quality of life to those with physical impairments or disabilities. Your role will involve diagnosing and treating patients with a wide range of conditions affecting the brain, spinal cord, nerves, bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons.
You will work closely with other healthcare professionals including physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and psychologists to develop comprehensive rehabilitation plans tailored to each patient’s needs. Your goal will be to help patients achieve optimal physical function and independence, whether they are recovering from a stroke, spinal cord injury, orthopedic surgery, or managing chronic pain or musculoskeletal disorders.
The ideal candidate will have strong clinical skills, excellent communication abilities, and a passion for helping patients regain their independence. You should be comfortable working in both inpatient and outpatient settings and be committed to continuous learning and professional development.
This is a rewarding opportunity for a physician who values interdisciplinary collaboration and wants to make a meaningful difference in patients’ lives.
