Prior experience in management of lung transplant patients in an established lung transplant program is required. Board certification in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine is required; completion of a lung transplant fellowship program is desired.

The Associate Director will work with the Director on clinical duties related to management of pre- and post- lung transplant patients in both ambulatory and in-patient settings. The associate director will also work with the director on lung transplant program growth and development. In addition to clinical care, teaching, and research opportunities in lung transplantation are available.

The Associate Medical Director will contribute to further development of our new active lung transplant program in collaboration with the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery based at North Shore University Hospital, Manhasset, NY.

The program will also serve as a referral resource for Northwell Health hospitals and the Long Island-NY-Westchester regions.
