  • World-class academic affiliation: Join one of the country's most respected pediatric departments within a major university health system - collaborate, publish, and push the field forward.

  • Relocation: $17,500 relocation assistance to make your move to the Bluegrass State seamless.
  • CME: $4,500/year to keep you at the forefront of neonatal medicine.
  • PTO: 36 days/year - more than most, because time away makes you a better physician.

  • Outdoor adventure: Red River Gorge, the Kentucky River palisades, and the Appalachian foothills put world-class mountain biking, rock climbing, river rafting, and paddling right at your doorstep.
  • Family-first community: Safe, tight-knit suburban neighborhoods with top-rated schools, a low cost of living, and the kind of genuine community that's increasingly hard to find - ideal for raising a family.
  • Four beautiful seasons: Warm, active summers, stunning autumn color, and mild winters mean you'll always have something to look forward to
