Background: The University of Florida (UF) Department of Urology is the premier academic urology training program in the state of Florida, located at UF Health Shands Hospital, a tertiary referral center serving the population of north central Florida, southern Georgia, and surrounding communities. The candidate would join a mature practice within the department, which has 20 additional urologists supporting general, endourology, oncology, pediatric, and reconstructive urologic surgery. The University of Florida is ranked 5th among the top public schools in the nation, and UF College of Medicine is one of 16 colleges within the university, providing an environment rich in cross-departmental collaborations.

Clinical: We are seeking a candidate with broad experience in all aspects of open, minimally invasive (laparoscopic/DaVinci robotic), and endoscopic treatments for general urologic conditions. The candidate will primarily focus on the coverage of both office and surgical treatment of general and small urologic cases. The candidate will join a robust multidisciplinary team of physicians, including fellowship-trained urologic oncologists and pediatric urologists, and will have the opportunity to serve as a mentor and teacher for UF urology fellows, residents, and medical students from UF Health Shands Hospital at the UF College of Medicine.

Protected time for research is available for qualified candidates who receive research funding. Mentorship from experienced faculty will be provided for candidates without prior independent research experience and/or funding. Strong interest and participation in clinical trials is required and will be conducted in conjunction with the UF Clinical and Translational Science Institute and UF Cancer Center.

Advertised Salary: Rank and salary commensurate with education and experience.
