Boston
Medical Center (BMC) and Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of
Medicine (BUCASM) are jointly recruiting a board-certified/board-eligible
plastic surgeon to join the Division of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. The
ideal candidate must have a strong background in microsurgery and interest in microsurgical
breast reconstruction, lower extremity reconstruction, and reconstruction of
complex defects. However, this position encompasses the full spectrum of
plastic surgery including breast surgery and post-bariatric body contouring.
In
addition to providing expert patient care using the latest treatments and
technologies, the division places a high priority on the training and
development of general surgery residents, the education of medical students,
and on improving care through research. The successful candidate will have
strong clinical credentials, a collaborative approach to patient care, and a
commitment to teaching.
The
selected candidate will be an additional faculty member to the current four
surgeons and five advanced practice clinicians.
BMC is a
514-bed academic medical center located in Boston’s historic South End. The
largest safety-net hospital in New England, BMC provides consistently excellent
and accessible health care to all. BMC is also the primary teaching affiliate
of BUCASM, a highly ranked medical school dedicated to urban and international
health and recognized as a leader in groundbreaking medical research. BMC is
the second largest recipient of NIH grant funding of all safety-net hospitals
in the country. The Department of Surgery has a significant record of clinical,
outcomes, translational, and basic research activity.
BMC and
BUCASM are committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive workforce. Candidates
who can contribute to this goal through their research, teaching, and/or
service are encouraged to apply. Applicants may include a brief diversity
statement in their cover letter or curriculum vitae if they choose to do so.
Boston
University conducts a background check on all final candidates for certain
faculty and staff positions. The background check includes contacting the final
candidate’s current and previous employer(s) to ask whether, in the last seven
years, there has been a substantiated finding of misconduct violating that
employer’s applicable sexual misconduct policies. To implement this process,
the university requires a final candidate to complete and sign the form
entitled “Authorization to Release Information” after execution of an offer
letter.
Candidates
