Anderson Hills Pediatrics is seeking an experienced Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist to join our integrated pediatric practice and help expand access to high-quality behavioral health care for children and adolescents, with continued care for established young adult patients as appropriate where applicable.

The psychiatrist should be comfortable with comprehensive psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, evidence-based psychopharmacology, controlled-substance prescribing, risk assessment, and longitudinal treatment management.

We particularly value a psychiatrist who is confident managing patients with complex psychiatric needs, including antipsychotic medication management, diagnostic clarification, safety planning, and coordination of higher levels of care when clinically indicated.

We are open to full-time and part-time arrangements and are willing to consider flexible clinical models based on the psychiatrist's availability, interests, and the needs of the practice.
