Last Update: 4/25/24

This institution cares for their clinicians and wants them to achieve their greatest potential for themselves, their families, and for the patients! They are searching for a dedicated physiatrist to add to their expanding group, to care for their patients and support a great work-life balance for practitioners. They are one of the largest pediatric clinical care providers in the country and look forward to inviting another talented and compassionate doctor to join the team!

Home to the largest hospital-integrated pediatric inpatient rehab unit in the country, you’ll enjoy robust outpatient practice through our many clinics. While many of their clinicians remain general in approach, others have helped the program to be a leader in cutting-edge procedures and interventions and technologies for pediatric PM&R. They are the only pediatric hospital in the nation to offer cryoneurolysis! Should you wish to delve deeper into procedures then they’ll gladly help you pursue that interest. We are happy to talk to you further about their advanced robotics and technology division, in addition to their great prosthetics and orthotics. This facility truly has it all!

The program is designed to have physiatrists work in a collegial environment with other pediatric subspecialists and take part in multidisciplinary clinics such as spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, cerebral palsy, spasticity, stroke, leukodystrophy and oncology. There are opportunities to teach and do research with residents and fellows: They actively participate in clinical studies aimed to advance pediatric medicine and transform the way we care for kids and teens.

CARF Accredited programs include:

  • Spinal Cord Specialty Program
  • Brain Injury Specialty Program
  • Cancer Rehab Specialty Program
  • Pediatric Specialty Program.
  • Day Rehabilitation Program

Health equity is a cornerstone of their work: They also have a foundation that plays a vital role in the wide range of care that they offer. They receive over 1.5 million dollars a year in donor funds, which supports high quality, necessary care for those that need it most. With their commitment, no child is denied rehab on the inpatient floor! The practice also plays an active role in the education of both physical medicine and rehabilitation physicians and pediatric residents and fellows.

These positions are flexible, as they truly employ a teamwork-oriented approach. The clinician leadership emphasizes sharing the workload equally and fairly while allowing you to pursue your own interests, helped by the ever-expanding patient volume. Drawing patients from all of Georgia and Tennessee, parts of Alabama, South Carolina, and Northern Florida, the practice is always busy.

You are offered an excellent compensation and benefits package, combined with a lower cost of living than other many major cities. It is consistently ranked one of the top places to live in the country; the community is known for its walkable neighborhoods, thriving arts and culture scene, pro sports teams, as well as its many green spaces and sunny weather. Great benefits and environment ensure that your free time is just as enjoyable as your time with your patients!
