The University of Central Florida College of Medicine (UCF-COM) Department of Medicine is seeking part-time and full-time medical Dermatology physicians to join our outpatient UCF Health academic practice. These are non-tenure track positions at the assistant, associate or professor of medicine level.
These positions are for medical dermatologists with strong skills in procedural dermatology (non-Mohs) to complement the expertise of our current dermatologists. The selected candidates will participate in or help to develop cross-specialty clinics (e.g., for dermato-rheumatology, dermato-oncology or occupational dermatology), and such experience is preferred. Applicants need to have demonstrated outstanding clinical practice delivering high quality, value-based, team-based outpatient care, as well as a high level of communication, collaboration and professionalism. Collaboration with other care providers is an essential component of this position. Examples include working with rheumatology faculty, fellows and internal medicine residents. In that there will on occasion be medical students, residents and fellows from our various Internal Medicine residency and fellowship programs rotating through our clinics or in need of dermatology didactic lectures, there will also be a small component of undergraduate and graduate medical education instruction.
The success of the university faculty practice, UCF Health, has led to continuing growth and expansion that includes modern state-of-the-art dermatology clinic facilities, and expansion of multiple specialties across our academic departments and participating hospitals. Candidates with experience in and willingness to help further develop our evolving dermatology service are preferred.
As is the case for all faculty, the chosen applicants will also be expected to provide service to the educational programs and other missions of the college and university. The UCF College of Medicine educates and inspires individuals to be exemplary physicians and scientists, leaders in medicine, scholars in discovery, and adopters of innovative technology to improve the health and well-being of all.
The College of Medicine is an LCME-accredited medical college with an annual matriculation of 120 medical students and is part of a new Academic Health Sciences Center which includes multiple health affairs disciplines. The College of Medicine campus is part of a growing biomedical cluster known as “Medical City” at Lake Nona which is dedicated to innovation in health and wellness and continues to develop just east of the Orlando International Airport. The College of Medicine is located in a well-equipped medical education building with modern Anatomy, Histology and simulation laboratories, as well as a state-of-the-art library. In addition to the medical school, the Lake Nona campus includes our recently opened university teaching hospital (UCF Lake Nona Hospital), a state-of-the-art research center at the Burnett School of Biomedical Sciences, multi-college graduate education programs, UCF outpatient clinics, the Orlando Veterans Affairs Medical Center, the Nemours Children’s Hospital, the new UCF Lake Nona Cancer Center, and the Guidewell Innovation research incubator. The nearby Osceola Regional Medical Center is another primary site of UME and GME instruction.
