Chair, Department of Medicine Carilion Clinic | Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine Roanoke, Virginia

If youre a physician leader who wants to shape the future of academic medicine while making a meaningful impact on patient care, education, and research, this is a rare opportunity to lead one of Virginias most comprehensive and respected Departments of Medicine.

At Carilion Clinic and Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine (VTCSOM), youll step into a role where your voice, vision, and leadership truly matter. Carilion Clinic places a strong emphasis on physician leadership as a core part of how it delivers care and runs the organization utilizing the dyad model: a physician + administrator partnership. Physicians in leadership roles provide care and are strategic decision-makers. VTCSOM engages chairs in shared governance of the medical school and the deans leadership team to inform policy and strategic decision-making

Why This Role Stands Out

As Chair of the Department of Medicine, youll lead the largest department within Carilion Clinic and VTCSOMhome to 14 subspecialties and more than 320 providersand help define its next chapter of growth and innovation. Youll have the platform to influence clinical excellence, expand research, and shape the training of future physicians through a close partnership with Virginia Tech and the Fralin Biomedical Research Institute at VTC.

The Chairs academic leadership and management responsibilities include oversight of all departmental faculty activities and academic initiatives as shared priorities of Carilion Clinic (CC) and VTCSOM. The Chair promotes faculty success, research and scholarship, and excellence in the clinical learning environment to exceed accreditation standards and enhance the national reputation of VTCSOM (MD degree) and CC (graduate medical education).
