Adult Clinical Neuropsychologist
Houston Methodist- Willowbrook
Houston, TX
Houston Methodist Hospital System Department of Neurology and Neurological Institute are recruiting a full-time adult neuropsychologist to join our vibrant interdisciplinary neuroscience group at the Houston Methodist Willowbrook Hospital campus. Our expanding practice is comprised of seven full-time neurologists representing various specializations, two neurosurgeons, and a pain management physician. The current neuropsychology team includes a neuropsychologist and a technician. We work with diverse populations including stroke, TBI, neuromuscular disorders, movement disorders, neurodegenerative conditions, and neurosurgical cases. The successful candidate will have the breadth of clinical experience sufficient to reach across the adult age span with an emphasis on the geriatric population. The position requires strong clinical as well as excellent written and spoken communication skills, enabling them to effectively interface with all members of our neuroscience group. The patient care experience is of foremost importance here at Houston Methodist. An excellent "bedside manner" is a must. This position will be designated primarily for outpatient service delivery, but occasional inpatient consultations are required.
The position is primarily clinical but developing a research agenda is also encouraged with internal support available. Research and academic appointments are available through The Houston Methodist Research Institute and The Weill-Cornell Medical School.
U.S. News & World Report has named Houston Methodist Hospital the Best Hospital in Texas for 10 years in a row. Houston Methodist is ranked the No. 1 hospital in Texas and No. 16 in the nation. We are nationally ranked in 10 specialties (including neurology/neurosurgery).
The salary is competitive and commensurate with level of experience. We offer a robust benefits package including support for professional development. The anticipated start date for this position is the fall of 2022.
Requirements
- Ph.D./Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology.
- Completion of an APA accredited predoctoral internship.
- Successful completion of a formal (APPCN) post- doctoral training program in neuropsychology.
- Board eligible or board certified.
- Licensed or license eligible in Texas.
