Dayton Childrens Hospital, located in Dayton, Ohio, is seeking an outstanding pediatric gastroenterologist with expertise in neurogastroenterology/motility to join our congenial group at Dayton Children's Hospital. For an experienced physician, this is a great opportunity to develop leadership and quality improvement skills within our division and in the institution generally. Opportunities are available for research and for medical student and resident teaching, the latter as part of the countrys only civilian/military integrated pediatric residency program. All our physicians hold faculty appointments in the Department of Pediatrics of the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine and teach medical students and residents.
Our Division: The GI division is composed of 9 pediatric gastroenterologists, 2 pediatric nurse practitioners, 1 physician assistant, 3 registered dieticians, nurses, and support staff to see over 11,000 outpatient visits per year at four sites and perform more than 2,700 endoscopic and motility procedures per year. We have psychologists, dieticians, and social workers embedded in our clinic, and we work closely with our pediatric, surgical, pathology, and radiology colleagues throughout the hospital as well as with our home care team and primary care physicians in our area. Our physicians include hospital leaders in medical affairs, value-based care, and quality. We are active participants in the ImproveCareNow network, and we have on-going research programs in inflammatory bowel disease.

Our Center: Dayton Childrens is a freestanding childrens hospital and level 1 trauma center with more than 35 pediatric specialties. We serve a pediatric population of 510,000 from a 20-county region of central and southwestern Ohio and eastern Indiana at our Main Campus and four satellite locations, including our South Campus that includes a specialty care center, pediatric emergency department, and outpatient surgery center with four operating rooms, including space for GI procedures. An eight-story, 260,000-square-foot patient care tower in the center of our main campus that opened in 2017 includes dedicated space for our GI inpatients and a motility lab. In March we will be moving our clinics into a new 152,000-square-foot specialty care outpatient center that will be adjacent to labs and radiology.
