Primary Care Mental Health Integration - Outpatient Consultation Psychiatrist






The Robert E. Larner, MD, College of Medicine at the University of Vermont and The University of Vermont Health Network are seeking a full-time faculty member at the Assistant/Associate/Professor level to practice outpatient consultation psychiatry through the Primary Care Mental Health Integration Division for the University of Vermont Health Network Department of Psychiatry. This attending psychiatrist will be part of a team of licensed clinical social workers and mental health clinicians in outpatient primary care offices affiliated with the University of Vermont Health Network. We are emulating the American Psychiatric Association's Collaborative Care model, and the attending psychiatrist will have flexibility in their work to include e-consultation and telepsychiatry from their home in addition to providing caseload consultation to mental health clinicians and other team members remotely.


We are currently hiring team members for our continued network expansion of our primary care mental health integration program at the University of Vermont Health Network outpatient primary care offices in New York State at our partner hospitals. These may include your choice of primary care outpatient sites at Champlain Valley Physicians Hospital, and / or Alice Hyde Medical Center. You will lead and recruit for a growing team focused on clinical implementation of the collaborative care model with the goal to expand access to mental health services in these underserved areas. The selected candidate will see outpatients for psychiatric evaluations, provide short-term follow-up and supervise licensed mental health clinicians. Clinical psychiatric consultations can be done via telepsychiatry which allows the applicant the ability to work remotely or from home for much of their clinical time, although on-site presence to establish relationships with referring providers, and to foster the growth of the program and consulting relationship is also an important part of the role.


Applicants must have a medical degree and be board certified or board eligible in psychiatry. They also must reside in either New York or Vermont, and either have or can attain both a New York and Vermont medical license. Additional fellowship training in child and adolescent psychiatry and / or comfort in seeing patients across the full age and lifespan would be desirable for the role, however it is not necessary for application.


The Robert Larner, MD, College of Medicine of the University of Vermont Psychiatry Service hosts medical students on clerkships and electives, sponsors a residency in psychiatry, and a fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry.
