Pacific Clinics seeks a BE/BC California-licensed Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist (CAP) to work 20 hours per week in a new integrated health program in San Jose. At least 8 hours per week must be in-person; up to 12 hours per week may be provided via telehealth. (Due to the COVID-19 crisis, all services may initially be remote.) Duties include psychiatric evaluation, medication management, consultation to primary care provider, and collaboration with clinicians providing psychosocial services. The integration of specialty mental health services in this established healthcare clinic is new, offering the CAP opportunities to build consultative relationships, teach, and contribute to program development with sponsorship from the agency’s Medical Director (also a CAP). Though calls are unusual, the CAP must be available to staff 24/7 by phone for urgent medication-related situations.
If you or someone you know may be interested in learning more about this opportunity please contact Program Director Duyen Pham at duyen.pham@pacificclinics.org or Chris Eggleston MD, Medical Director, at ceggleston@pacificclinics.org.
