Essential Job Functions

As an Associate Professor in the Department of Radiation Oncology at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston you are expected to provide patient clinical services, participate in clinical research and educate all learners.

Patient care will include pediatric, adult, and adult incarcerated patients. The care will primarily focus on outpatient access but may include assessment of inpatients.

Staffing of special procedures is necessary, including stereotactic radiosurgery, stereotactic body radiation treatments, high‑dose treatment delivery at the LINAC, and clinical setup. You will staff 4DRT/simulation, DIBH, and other treatment delivery techniques. Brachytherapy insertion, planning, and delivery will be required. Image‑guided simulation and clinical simulation will also be staffed.

You are expected to enroll patients on clinical trials and contribute to the education of fellows, residents, medical students, PA students, and radiation therapy students rotating on service.

Adherence to compliance, billing standards, and patient services based on the standard of care, ethics, quality, and safety is of the utmost importance.

Maintaining board certification and all UTMB‑based requirements for staff membership is required. You will take call on a rotational basis.
