The Department of Pediatrics at the University of California, San Diego is committed to academic excellence within the faculty, staff, and student body. We are seeking both part-time and full-time General Pediatricians to join our Division of Academic General Pediatrics, Newborn Medicine and Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics.

The Division has clinical practices in several locations, all serving as the primary UCSD School of Medicine clinical trainee teaching sites, including medical students, residents, and fellows. This includes a partnership with a large federally qualified health center (FQHC) system that serves many communities in San Diego. At all sites, we provide outpatient medical care for infants, children, adolescents, and young adults aged from birth to 18 years. Our team is comprised of faculty committed to providing and teaching evidence-based clinical care. The Division has co-located clinics focused on caring for medically fragile patients, the UCSD Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics faculty group practice, and offers visits for breastfeeding support for premature infants as well as travel visits.

The successful candidates will provide high-quality healthcare to infants, children, and adolescents while supporting the mission of teaching and research. The successful candidates will supervise and teach medical students, residents, and fellows, mentor trainees, and actively contribute to quality improvement and research efforts. The position requires flexibility with work hours, shifts, on-call duties, and locations to meet the division's 24-hour needs.
