Job description

Primary Care Faculty - Internal Medicine

The Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) is seeking clinician-educators and academic physicians. The faculty will join the Primary Care Section of the Division of General Internal Medicine. Practice in anoutpatient setting, among enthusiastic colleagues with a reputation for excellence, with opportunities for teaching and scholarship. The Internal Medicine Clinic is a patient-centered medical home (PCMH), serving a diverse patient population of over 20,000 patients annually. We practice cutting edge team-based care and maintain a focus on other special programs such as cancer survivor care and have options to hone skills such as wound care, joint injections, IUD placements, cryotherapy, and more. Our affiliated hospital, Froedtert Hospital, is a 500‑bed, Level I award‑winning, regional referral center.

We are seeking a general internist to practice primarily in our general internal medicine clinic; however, there are two specialhybrid opportunities available for those interested in clinical work outside the clinic that may be discussed. The positions available are:

• Faculty may spend a portion of their effort providing contracted services at The Sixteenth Street Community Health Centers (SSCHC), the area's largest FQHC, which serves a diverse (mostly Spanish speaking) and under-resourced population in Milwaukee. The faculty would be expected to provide some clinical services as well as resident precepting at their resident continuity clinic. The faculty member may also participate and/or lead quality improvement efforts and research at SSCHC and teach/mentor for the APP Fellowship in Primary Care and Community Health program at SSCHC.

• Faculty may be part of a new and innovative cancer survivorship program. GIM faculty participate in a multidisciplinary clinic in coordination with the oncology service to ensure optimal care for cancer survivors with complex needs. Some interest or background in oncology is important.
