Yale has an exciting opportunity for a full-time Medical Physicist at our Coastal Connecticut clinic in Greenwich, CT.
Yale-New Haven Health is seeking a motivated MS or PhD clinical Medical Physicist to provide clinical services at our Greenwich, CT site. The successful candidate must be board-certified or board-eligible, having graduated from a CAMPEP accredited medical physics residency program with working experience in a clinical environment. Experience in Eclipse, ARIA, and Varian Linacs is desired. This satellite location has two Varian linacs, Nucletron/Oncentra HDR, and a Philips CT scanner. We recently transitioned from MOSAIQ to ARIA at this location. The successful candidate will be joining a regional team of five physicists, five dosimetrists, and a physics assistant, which values a supportive team environment, knowledge sharing, and work life balance. Yale-New Haven Hospital operates seven clinics in Connecticut with a team of 20 medical physicists, 20 dosimetrists and 3 physics residents providing a full range of clinical medical physics services to the Smilow Cancer Hospital. Faculty appointment in the Yale University School of Medicine is available based on individual qualification. Yale-New Haven Health is a part of the Yale Medical Center which is an academic center of excellence in the practice of medicine. The department also offers fully accredited Radiation Oncology and Medical Physics residency programs in addition to other educational programs.
Yale-New Haven Health is a part of the Yale Medical Center which is an academic center of excellence in the practice of medicine. Yale Cancer Center is the only NIH-designated Comprehensive Cancer Centers in Connecticut. Extensive research efforts in radiation physics, radiation biology and clinical radiation oncology are ongoing. The Department of Therapeutic Radiology treats approximately 2500 new cancer patients each year: about 1200 in New Haven and 1300 in the department's satellite facilities in Greenwich, Trumbull, Derby, Guilford, Hamden, and Waterford. The department offers a full range of radiation therapy treatments including IMRT, IGRT, SBRT, TBI, TSET and other special procedures using modern linear accelerators with onboard kV-, MV-, and CBCT-imaging; Gamma Knife SRS using the latest ICON unit; and a full suite of LDR and HDR brachytherapy. Major equipment includes: eleven linear accelerators, seven CT simulators, three HDR afterloaders, major treatment planning systems (cloud-hosted ARIA/Eclipse, iPlan and GammaPlan), Calypso image guidance systems, C-Rad/VisionRT surface imaging system, as well as Citrix-based enterprise ARIA information management system. The department also offers fully accredited radiation oncology and medical physics residency programs in addition to other educational programs.
Yale-New Haven Health is an equal opportunity employer.
Candidates interested in joining our collegial clinical team should send a cover letter and a curriculum vitae with names and contact information of three references to David J. Carlson, PhD, Professor, Vice Chair, Director of Medical Physics at david.j.carlson@yale.edu.
