Preferred Job Summary
Interested applicants are invited to join Atrium Health Levine Cancer’s physics practice in a leader role guiding a dynamic care team. Atrium Health Levine Cancer (AHLC) provides patients with access to nationally renowned physicians and state-of-the-art treatments at 25+ cancer care locations across the Carolinas, including 10 radiation therapy centers in the Greater Charlotte, NC area.
Atrium Health is recruiting a Manager (Chief) Medical Physicist to support clinical services at our Northern Area radiation therapy clinics (AHLC Cabarrus, AHLC Stanly and AHLC University City). These facilities collectively feature 2 Varian Truebeam(s) (Cabarrus), one Varian Clinaci
X (University) and one Trilogylinac (Stanly), all with Surface Image Guidance setup and motion management systems. The treatment planning system is Varian Eclipse (v16.1) and ARIA is the oncology EMR. Each clinic has a CT scanner to support clinical simulations.
The team dedicated to supporting the Northern Area clinics currently consists of 5 dosimetrists and 4 physicians. The interested candidate would lead a team of 5 other medical physicists. Atrium Health’s Charlotte clinics are home to 50+ physicists, dosimetrists and medical physics assistants dedicated to supporting external beam and modalities across our network.
The 7 other Greater Charlotte-region Atrium Health Levine Cancer Radiation Therapy clinics are equipped with CT Simulators (GE/Philips), as well as Varian treatment planning (Eclipse v16.1), EMR (ARIA 15.6/16.1) and Clinac/True Beam treatment delivery systems, with one clinic equipped with Ray Station (v2023B) TPS, Mosaiq EMR and an Elekta Infinity linear accelerator. AHLC’s Charlotte-area clinics have active SBRT and SRS programs and employ Surface Image Guidance Technology in most facilities.
Our network of clinics also includes the Proton and Advanced Radiation Therapy Center which features the 2-state region’s only proton beam delivery system, Gamma Knife-based SRS and an active radiopharmaceutical therapy program. MIM Maestro image management software including AI contouring tools is also utilized. A full complement of QA tools and technologies are available. Active clinical projects include knowledge-based planning techniques, AI contouring, clinical implementation of Cherenkov radiation in radiotherapy and QA standardization using a cloud-based platform.
Additionally, our Charlotte area clinics currently host trainees from the Carolinas College of Health Sciences in radiation therapy and medical dosimetry. Physicists also serve as mentors in the joint Atrium Health/Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist CAMPEP-approved medical physics residency program. In 2025, the Charlotte campus of the Wake Forest University School of Medicine opened with its inaugural class of medical students.
It is anticipated that opportunities for academic faculty physicist roles will be available to interested and appropriate candidates.
Interested candidates will join a collaborative environment where physicists work across facilities on projects impacting patients network-wide.
Major Responsibilities
- Leads and provides systematic oversight for the commissioning, acceptance, calibration, maintenance, clinical application, and quality assurance of all of the radiation therapy equipment and services provided at the assigned location.
- Maintains documentation of all commissioning, acceptance, and quality assurance activities and provides these documents for administrative review.
- Develops and presents goals and at least quarterly work plans describing existing and/or future physics projects, and produces a staff rota to ensure that all medical physics and medical dosimetry tasks are completed with appropriate peer review.
- Creates, maintains, and updates medical dosimetry and physics competencies, and ensures the medical dosimetry and medical physics staff are able to independently perform all new…
