Vice Chair of Operations, Department of Interventional Radiology

Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) seeks applications and nominations for the inaugural Vice Chair of Clinical Operations and Quality in the Department of Interventional Radiology. Housed within the School of Medicine at OHSU, the state’s only academic medical center, the Dotter Department of Interventional Radiology holds a historic reputation as one of only three freestanding interventional radiology departments in the country. The Vice Chair of Clinical Operations and Quality will provide clinical leadership to the department, supporting continued excellence in evidence-based and person-centered care with an emphasis on continuity and access.

The Dotter Department of Interventional Radiology is comprised of four sections; Body Interventional Radiology, Interventional Neuroradiology, Metro Interventional Radiology, and Research, with a diverse faculty group of 24 physicians, 4 advanced practice providers, 3 registered nurses, 11 residents, 2 fellows, as well as technologists and clinical staff, who deliver high-quality, complex care to a growing patient population in the surrounding Portland area. The Department is also home to the historic Dotter Institute, established in 1990 as a multidisciplinary clinical, research, and educational division of OHSU. 

Reporting to the Chair of Interventional Radiology, the Vice Chair will work collaboratively toward impact in complex, adaptive systems by optimizing the framework for seamless clinical operations, enhancing quality efforts, and integrating with the research and education components of the Department. The Vice Chair will play a critical leadership role during a time of growth in the Department, working to optimize current clinical services and collaborating creatively with key constituents internal and external to OHSU. A collaborative specialty by nature, the Vice Chair will work in partnership with key internal and external healthcare leaders and stakeholders to strengthen the clinical arm of the Department’s tripartite mission of education, research, and clinical care. The Vice Chair will have earned an MD, DO, MD/PhD, or DO/PhD, hold board certification in Interventional Radiology/Diagnostic Radiology, and be eligible to obtain a medical license in the state of Oregon.
