The incoming Psychiatrist will be a proactive team member at Fred Hutch and perform clinical consultation and treatment of oncology patients in the ambulatory setting.

Complementing this, the UW School of Medicine is acclaimed as the premier public medical school for NIH research funding and is celebrated for its top-tier primary care training program. This prestigious institution invites a dedicated Psychiatrist to join its team, offering an opportunity to contribute to a legacy of excellence in healthcare and research.

Faculty with 12-month service periods are paid for 11 months of service over a 12-month period (July-June), meaning the equivalent of one month is available for paid time off.
