Neonatology Physician (MD/DO) - UNC Health Care System

Become part of an inclusive organization with over 40,000 teammates, whose mission is to improve the health and well-being of the unique communities we serve.

UNC Health is seeking a clinical faculty member to join our neonatology practice at the large regional campus and Level 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in Wilmington, NC.

This multi-specialty academic practice and children’s hospital is part of an innovative partnership between UNC and Novant Health to provide specialty care to children from communities throughout southeastern and coastal NC.

The ideal candidate is clinically focused in a regional community children’s hospital with a strong connection to a large academic group and a qua ternary children’s hospital. This is an open rank faculty position, on the fixed term track, but salary benchmarks will be at private/community levels.

The majority of clinical time will be at the Level III NICU at Betty Cameron Children’s, with a small amount of time on-site at two of the regional Level II NICUs and remotely supervising two regional Level I and II NICUs. Interest in teaching and clinical research is also very desirable.

The NICU at Betty Cameron includes a 45 bed Level III NICU with single-family rooms and cutting-edge care models. There are approximately 4200 deliveries per year and 700 NICU admissions with regional referrals from other delivery centers in our region.

Care provided at this location includes extreme prematurity (down to 22 weeks), advanced respiratory support, cooling, and inhaled nitric oxide. We are an active member of the Vermont Oxford Network, Pediatric Trials Network, and participate in clinical research with the UNC Chapel Hill campus.
