We are a collegial team with a focus on continuous practice improvement and collaboration. This is an excellent opportunity for a stroke neurologist looking to take part in a satisfying full-spectrum neurology practice, with a strong focus on acute stroke care, TIA/stroke clinic, and regional stroke pathway development.
Our inpatient care covers general neurology and acute stroke, including thrombolysis. You will provide care in the Phil & Jennie Gaglardi Tower, which houses a multidisciplinary combined stroke/rehabilitation unit. Here, we collaborate closely with physiatry, hospitalist, and internal medicine teams, including a dedicated unit MRP hospitalist. We also have strong ties with our regional colleagues at Kelowna General Hospital and are working to develop regional subspecialty care pathways.
Outpatient neurology clinics take place in the Clinical Services Building. Here, you will help provide care through our TIA/stroke clinic, which runs five days a week and is supported by a full-time RN and booking clerk. We are also expanding our outpatient services, with plans to add a rapid access neurology clinic as well as further supports for subspecialty neurology clinics.
If you are interested in teaching, you can be actively involved with the UBC clerkship and residency programs. We have on-site medical students, family medicine residents, internal medicine residents, as well as rotating residents in psychiatry and neurology. Leadership development opportunities are available through Interior Health’s NAVIG8 Program.
