Job Description

Tufts Medical Center’s Physician Organization and the Division of Addiction Psychiatry are seeking a full-time Division Chief of Addiction Psychiatry.

The successful candidate will be responsible for leading Addiction Psychiatry at Tufts Medical Center (TMC) and across the Tufts Medicine healthcare system in collaboration with the Department of Medicine, and through partnerships with the Tufts Medicine Integrated Network (TMIN), Lowell General Hospital and MelroseWakefield Health.

Additionally, the Chief of Addiction Psychiatry will aid in the oversight of a 24-bed inpatient dual diagnosis unit in Tufts’ new joint venture behavioral health hospital with Acadia Healthcare. Our incumbent Chief will also have the opportunity to continue existing and develop new clinical research opportunities in addiction psychiatry at TMC and across Tufts Medicine.

The anticipated schedule will include 20% of time providing strategic and clinical leadership and 80% of time providing clinical inpatient and outpatient treatment at TMC and research depending on the candidate’s experience and interest.

How you’ll transform patient care:

  • The Chief of Addiction Psychiatry will address the high prevalence of substance use disorders within TMIN primary care settings by improving access to team-based addiction care and supporting the performance of Medicaid ACO, Medicare, and commercial risk contracts.
  • This position is essential for advancing clinical research, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, and integrating evidence-based practices into addiction psychiatry.
  • The Chief will have opportunities to secure funding for innovative research studies, drive the development of advanced treatment protocols, and translate research findings into meaningful clinical improvements.
  • In addition to clinical and research responsibilities, this role will enhance education and training by mentoring medical students, residents, and fellows while developing curricula that emphasize advanced addiction psychiatry techniques.
  • The Chief will actively participate in departmental leadership and contribute to teaching within the Adult Psychiatry Residency program.

Who You Are:

  • A demonstrated successful clinical leader at an academic institution
  • A passionate mentor with a proven track record of both clinical and academic accomplishments and of supporting the clinical accomplishments of those you have advised
  • Possess an MD, or equivalent, and eligible to obtain a medical license in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
  • BC/BE in Addiction Psychiatry
  • Appointment to the Tufts University School of Medicine faculty based on experience and accomplishments with opportunity to teach medical students and participate in Medical School leadership efforts

Compensation:
