Responsibilities:
The Division of Gastroenterology and Nutrition is recruiting an individual who will have a strong clinician scholar role. The position is 70% clinical with opportunity for education and research.
The successful candidate will join a strong service comprised of 10 pediatric gastroenterologists and a multi-disciplinary health care team who primarily provide clinical care at the Stollery Children’s Hospital with consultative services offered throughout the Edmonton Zone facilities. The division provides complete GI, hepatology/liver and intestinal transplant, and nutritional services to an expansive referral area including central and northern Alberta, northern British Columbia, and the Northwest Territories. The Stollery Children’s Hospital is the Western Canadian pediatric liver and intestinal/
multivisceral transplant referral center.
Work commitments will include inpatient care and consultation, outpatient medical clinic consultation and long term follow up, diagnostic and interventional endoscopy and after hours on call duties. The role will provide much needed uplift to existing general pediatric gastroenterology care as well as support of existing specialty programs such as IBD, EoE and Celiac Disease. As such, experience in the care of intestinal failure and transplant patients as well as training/expertise and certification in intestinal ultrasound would be desirable. A Clinical Academic Colleague appointment to the Department of Pediatrics, University of Alberta, would be an expectation with potential for engagement in both undergraduate and postgraduate education alongside minor research activities.
