Allegheny Health Network (AHN) in Pittsburgh is hiring outstanding rheumatologists to join our team of 19 rheumatology clinicians and selected Internal Medicine subspecialists at the newly created Autoimmunity Institute. The Institute includes an infusion suite and clinical trial facilities to offer a broad scope of integrated multidisciplinary care for our patients.

Outstanding opportunities are available immediately at the Assistant Professor level for clinicians and clinician educators and at the Associate Professor and Professor level for leadership positions as Directors of Centers of Excellence (COE) within the Institute. These COEs will be modeled after our successful efforts with the Lupus Center of Excellence, focused on multispecialty patient care integrated with multidisciplinary research as published in Clinical and Translational Science 1:96-98, 2008. Physician-scientists with expertise in translational research focused on autoimmune diseases are particularly encouraged to apply.

Weekly conferences for faculty and trainees are an integral part of the new ACGME-approved AHN rheumatology fellowship program. These include CME-accredited Rheumatology Grand Rounds, journal clubs, weekly Internal Medicine Grand Rounds, and regular interdisciplinary conferences with other specialties. Division faculty are encouraged to serve as mentors for trainees interested in pursuing clinical and lab-based scholarly activities.

The qualified candidate must be BC in Internal Medicine, BC/BE in Rheumatology, and able to obtain a PA license prior to employment.

In addition to a competitive compensation package – including health insurance, retirement benefits, paid malpractice, CME allowances, and more - the position offers exceptional support staff within a collegial environment, and teaching, research, and trainee mentoring opportunities.

Allegheny Health Network (AHN) – a subsidiary of Highmark Health, the third largest integrated health care delivery and financing system in the nation, –  is an integrated delivery network focused on preserving health care choice and providing affordable, high-quality care to the people in our communities. With more than 14,000 employees including 7,400 health care professionals, and nearly 200 primary care and specialty care practices, Allegheny Health Network includes seven hospitals in Pennsylvania with nearly 2,400 licensed beds.

Pittsburgh, PA is the second largest city in Pennsylvania and sits within the Appalachian Mountains at the confluence of the Allegheny, Ohio, and Monongahela Rivers. Historically known as an industrial steel town, Pittsburgh has reinvented itself over the past 30 years and is now a major international research, technology, and education hub, with hundreds of businesses focusing on healthcare, engineering, robotics, and software development. The City of Pittsburgh has been the recipient of dozens of national and international awards and recognitions over the past several years, including being named one of the most livable cities in the world by numerous media outlets due to its affordable cost of living, world class arts and entertainment, proximity to internationally recognized colleges and universities, and plentiful access to green space and recreational opportunities.
