Job description

Allergy and Immunology Fellowship Program Director

Northwell Health - Manhasset, NY

The Division of Allergy and Immunology in the Department of Pediatrics at the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell is seeking a mid‑career A&I Board Certified academic physician to join the clinical faculty as the A&I Fellowship Program Director. The successful candidate will have completed residency in either General Pediatrics or Internal Medicine and will have a strong background in A&I education. Preferred candidates will have an MD or MD/PhD degree with a successful track record in training A&I fellows for a minimum of 3 years.

The Northwell A&I Fellowship is a nationally recognized, ACGME accredited A&I fellowship program. Our program has a strong record of graduating outstanding subspecialists pursuing research, academic, and community practice locally and at major academic institutions across the United States. Our program trains four A&I fellows each year, 2 in each year of training. We take fellows from both pediatric and internal medicine backgrounds who have chosen A&I for their future career. Ninety‑six A&I fellows have graduated from our program since 1985. There is an existing consortium of these A&I graduates who meet at the major A&I yearly conferences and also attend as voluntary consultants with the academic A&I attendings in the 2nd year A&I fellows’ clinics. In these clinics, A&I fellows are supported by both full‑time and former graduate volunteer physicians in preparation to become A&I physicians of record upon graduation.

The Division of Allergy and Immunology serves a very large population of children and adults with a wide variety of atopic diseases and/or genetically defined primary immunodeficiency. The Division also treats adults and children with secondary and acquired immunodeficiency resulting from successful treatment of autoimmune disease or cancer. The Division houses the Jeffrey Modell Diagnostic Center with a fully staffed research laboratory in the Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, the basic science research arm of Northwell Health. There are 4 Internal Medicine and 2 Pediatric A&I faculty members, 3 PAs, 3 FNPs, a Doctor of Pharmacy, and 5 nurses in the A&I Division. There are 4 centers of excellence in the A&I Division, including the Food Allergy Center, the Drug Allergy and Desensitization Center, the Pediatric Asthma Center linked to Cohen Children’s Medical Center, and the Primary and Secondary Immunodeficiency Disease Center.

Cohen Children’s Medical Center opened in 1983 as the New York metropolitan area’s only hospital designed exclusively for children. Today, it is the largest pediatric teaching hospital in the region, with over 750,000 visits annually and serving 1.8 million children in Brooklyn, Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk counties. It is the tertiary pediatric medical center of the Northwell Health System and the only Level‑1 Pediatric Trauma Center in Nassau and Queens. Northwell’s Cohen Children’s Medical Center was named the No. 1 children’s hospital in New York State and earned top 50 national rankings for exceptional care in 10 pediatric subspecialties.

Northwell Health is New York State’s largest health care provider and private employer, with 28 hospitals and 1,050 outpatient facilities. We care for over two million people annually in the New York metro area and beyond, thanks to philanthropic support from our communities. Our 103,500 employees – 19,000+ nurses and 12,000+ credentialed physicians, including members of Northwell Health Physician Partners – are working to change health care for the better.
