Seeking a full-time Neuropsychologist for our Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Health at Geisinger.

The current opening will largely involve being the lead neuropsychologist for the Aging Brain Program in the Wilkes-Barre region in conjunction with the Department of Neurology. The Neuropsychologist will take part in an interdisciplinary team, including a Behavioral Neurologist, contributing to comprehensive assessments and management of geriatric patients with concerns for neurocognitive disorders.

The Neuropsychology Section sponsors a Neuropsychology Postdoctoral Residency Program, with which there will be opportunity to participate in, and there will also be teaching opportunities within the newly developing Psychiatry Residency program. Research opportunities are also available.

The Neuropsychology Section handles outpatient referrals across a full array of medical, neurologic and psychiatric conditions and provides inpatient and outpatient neuropsychological evaluations and consultations to a large community practice network as well as various specialty medical services, including Trauma Surgery, Neurosurgery, Neurology, Psychiatry, Medicine, and Cardiology. In addition to working with the Aging Brain Program, some limited opportunity for involvement in additional areas of interest could be possible.
