This role offers exceptional flexibility, focusing exclusively on ambulatory practice, allowing for a balanced professional life while providing cutting-edge patient care.

Set on the banks of the scenic Hudson River,
Vassar Brothers Medical Center, a Thrombectomy-Capable Stroke Center is a 350-bed facility that has served New York’s Mid-Hudson Valley since 1887.

VBMC delivers the region’s leading acute and critical emergency care, including Level II Trauma Service and Interventional Neuroradiology, alongside established centers of excellence in cardiac services, neurosciences, cancer care, and women’s health. The hospital is consistently ranked among the nation’s strongest cardiac programs and was named a Top 100 Heart Hospital by Modern Health Care Magazine. Our Kingston site extends that same standard of care further into the Hudson Valley, giving you the opportunity to serve patients across both communities.

The Hudson Valley offers an outstanding quality of life — hiking the Shawangunk Ridge, biking the Hudson Valley Rail Trail, sailing the river itself, and spending weekends at farmers markets, art galleries, and farm-to-table restaurants that draw visitors from across the Northeast.

The area is also home to respected colleges and universities, including Vassar College, Bard College, Marist College, SUNY New Paltz, and the Culinary Institute of America, and when you want the city, Manhattan is just 75 minutes away via Metro-North or Amtrak.
