Position Description
The University of Washington (UW) Department of Medicine, Division of Nephrology is seeking applicants for a full-time (1.0 FTE) position. This position would be hired at the rank of Assistant, Associate, or Professor of Clinical Practice. This position is non-tenure eligible. Salary and rank will be commensurate with experience and qualifications. Assistant, Associate, or Professors of Clinical Practice are eligible for an initial appointment period of three years, at a minimum, with eligibility for renewal thereafter that aligns with a 12-month service period (July 1-June 30). 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.

Duties include providing nephrology care on the inpatient consult service and out-patient clinics, performing non-visit consultations, and delivering care for patients undergoing long-term dialysis. The number of weeks on consult service, the number of outpatient clinics, and extent of participation in dialysis and remote nephrology care will be based on the need and at the discretion of the Section Head and Division Head. Travel to outreach specialty clinics within the VA system is expected.
