About the role

Northwell Health’s Department of Behavioral Health seeks an experienced inpatient psychiatrist for Danbury Hospital's 22-bed adult unit. Join a 2-physician-run team within a larger 4-physician department and lead a sub-team that includes residents, social workers, and nursing staff. You will have significant opportunities for academic engagement, supervising residents and medical students, and participating in teaching across affiliated schools. This position is based at Danbury Hospital.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
