The neurologists in our practice have a variety of clinical and subspecialty interests.  Clinical interest in the care of patients with neuromuscular disease and/or spasticity is encouraged, but not required.

The practice works closely with our Neuroscience Institute to further develop Neuroscience Centers of Excellence in support of our stroke, epilepsy, movement disorders, MS programs, and pediatric neurology specialty clinics including Muscle Dystrophy Association clinic, Spinal Bifida clinic, and Cerebral Palsy clinic. Research interests are supported through Maine Medical Center Research Institute.

Medical staff represent all the pediatric medical and surgical subspecialties that provide comprehensive services for children, including a PICU, NICU, dedicated pediatric ED, and a 35 bed inpatient unit. 

Maine Medical Center has 637 licensed beds and is the state’s leading tertiary care hospital and Level 1 Trauma Center, with a full complement of residencies and fellowships, and integration with Tufts University Medical School.   Candidates will have the opportunity to teach medical students from multiple universities as well as residents in adult neurology, general pediatrics, and child psychiatry training programs. Call coverage is 1 in 5 for the primarily consultative service, with support from pediatric residents.

The successful candidate will be employed by Maine Medical Partners (MMP), a subsidiary of Maine Medical Center and Maine’s largest multi-specialty group.  MMP serves the health care needs of patients throughout Maine and Northern New England. 

Situated on the Maine coast, Portland offers the best of urban sophistication combined with small-town friendliness.  The area provides four season recreational opportunities, such as skiing, hiking, sailing, and miles of beautiful beaches.  Just two hours north of Boston, this is an exceptionally diverse and vibrant community.  MaineHealth values diversity and is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer.
