"Open Rank Faculty for Interventional Neuroradiology"

This is a unique hybrid academic–private practice opportunity in Neurointerventional Surgery. As a faculty member of the University of Virginia Department of Radiology and Medical Imaging, the position offers the benefits, stability, and support of a state-run academic institution while providing the autonomy and high procedural volume of a private practice model. Primary responsibilities include leading and expanding an already successful neurointerventional program based at one of three Comprehensive Stroke Centers in Richmond, Virginia. The role encompasses emergent and routine inpatient services, outpatient clinic management, and participation in a stable practice currently staffed by three neurointerventionalists.

The position requires expertise in the full spectrum of interventional neuroradiology, including mechanical thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke, endovascular treatment of cerebral aneurysms, and management of complex arteriovenous malformations and fistulae. Candidates should have a strong interest in program building and systems leadership, with opportunities to expand specialized areas of practice. Responsibilities include supervising a team of dedicated Neurovascular Advanced Practice Clinicians (APCs), collaborating with multidisciplinary neuroscience and stroke teams, and contributing to ongoing quality, research, and education initiatives. Leadership opportunities are available within the practice, in the Bon Secours system, and within the UVA academic ecosystem.

Compensation is reflective of an academic/private hybrid model, and the position offers excellent work–life balance. Clinical volumes, including thrombectomy cases, continue to grow with strong referral networks providing a fertile environment for continued practice growth. A new hospital tower is under construction, featuring a dedicated Neuro-ICU, further enhancing the infrastructure for advanced neurovascular care. This role represents one of the best opportunities in the country for pure neurointerventional surgery, combining high clinical impact with academic advancement in a collaborative, supportive environment.

Qualified candidates for this position must have an MD or equivalent degree (MD/DO) from an accredited institution, be eligible for a Virginia State Medical License, be Board Certified/Eligible in Radiology, Neurology, or Neurosurgery, with subspecialty certification/Recognition of Focused Practice in Neuroendovascular Surgery (ABR, ABNS, or AAN pathway), completion of fellowship training in Interventional Neuroradiology/Endovascular Surgical Neuroradiology, or equivalent pathway (Neurosurgery, Neurology, or Radiology), and provide demonstrated expertise in a wide range of neurointerventional procedures, including mechanical thrombectomy, aneurysm embolization, and AVM/dural fistula management. Strong leadership, communication, and team-building skills, with experience collaborating in multidisciplinary stroke and neuroscience programs is also required. Interest and/or experience in program growth, systems leadership, and supervising Advanced Practice Clinicians, in addition to academic productivity, including research, teaching, and/or national committee participation, is highly valued and supported.
