Join Our Team of Passionate, Supportive, and Seasoned Pediatric Infectious Disease Physicians at Children's Minnesota!
Are you looking for a place where you can make a meaningful impact in Pediatric Infectious Disease while surrounded by a team that truly values collaboration, support, and providing quality patient care? The Infectious Disease team at Children's Minnesota is a dynamic and close-knit group that is excited to offer such an opportunity to a fellowship-trained Pediatric Infectious Disease physician.
The Pediatric Infectious Disease program includes nine dedicated physicians and two dynamic nurse practitioners, and boasts a strong collaborative approach where clinical practice, decision-making, and sub-sub-specialty interests are encouraged. The providers care for children with acute and chronic infectious diseases in greater Minnesota and western Wisconsin, as well as those from eastern North Dakota and northern Iowa.
The group practices at Children's Minnesota's two hospital-based sites in Minneapolis and St. Paul. These sites include large neonatal and pediatric ICUs, a large and growing Cardiovascular ICU with a heart transplant program, and a large hematology and oncology program.
Providers are responsible for inpatient and outpatient infectious disease consultations and ongoing care for patients with a broad variety of acute and chronic infectious conditions. Work collaboratively with talented hospitalist medicine and emergency medicine providers, along with a full complement of pediatric medical and surgical specialists. Additional partners include a robust Immunology program, which includes three physicians and one nurse practitioner. Two dedicated providers from the team serve as principal participants in the Antimicrobial Stewardship program, working alongside a dedicated Infectious Disease PharmD, and a multidisciplinary working committee. The group also works closely with the Infection Prevention and Control team, with one dedicated provider who provides clinical consultative expertise.
The group also works closely with the Value and Clinical Excellence department by engaging in quality improvement projects, including clinical guideline development. The hematology and oncology program is working towards expanding to CAR-T therapy in the coming years, and particular expertise and interest in the infectious disease interface with these patients is desired.
Children's Minnesota serves a diverse patient population and is committed to continuous improvements in equity and diversity, including high-level leadership and institutional support. The diverse population includes several large immigrant populations, which also provides a rich environment for practice involving global health and travel.
