*Opportunity to join an established pediatric Infectious Disease clinical practice comprised of inpatient consultations/rounding, ambulatory clinic, antibiotic stewardship, infection control, and virtual medicine. Pediatric Infectious Diseases (ID) at Southern California Permanente Medical Group currently consists of 8 Pediatric ID specialists across the Southern California region. We are recruiting a full-time Pediatric Infectious Disease specialist to join our group in Orange County (OC). KP Anaheim Medical Center is a designated specialty medical center in the Kaiser Permanente Pediatric care (KPPC) network. Our services include a pediatric ward at the Anaheim hospital and NICUs, well child nurseries, and emergency departments at our Anaheim and Irvine hospitals. We place great emphasis on fostering a strong culture of collaboration and support among pediatric medical and surgical specialties not only within OC but also across the KP Southern California region. In this position, the OC Pediatric ID physician will work collaboratively with our Pediatric ID physician at our Downey Medical Center. The Downey Medical Center is one of three tertiary medical centers in the KPPC network with PICUs. Our medical group utilizes telemedicine and our regional electronic medical record when appropriate so that specialists can work from their home facility while supporting the regional patient population when on-call.

We play an active role in training the next generation of physicians both in teaching resident physicians and as a designated clerkship site for the Kaiser Permanente Bernard J.

We also have a robust research infrastructure within KP Southern California with opportunities for internal research grants.
