The Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Virginia is seeking candidates for a tenure eligible Open Rank Professor position to start August 2027. This clinical faculty position is responsible for providing exceptional patient care in the management of orthopaedic sports medicine with a strong commitment to musculoskeletal research.

Candidates with experience and/or focus in all sub-specialized areas of orthopaedic sports medicine, including knee and shoulder, will be considered.

The selected candidate will join a group of 30 orthopaedic faculty who share emergency orthopaedic call coverage at a Level 1 quaternary care trauma center, and assist in management of other musculoskeletal conditions outside of the sports domain as needed for the Central Virginia region. The candidate will see patients in our newly constructed UVA Orthopaedic Center Ivy Road, a 200,000 square foot facility housing all adult orthopaedic subspecialties, physical therapy, outpatient operating rooms, conference space, prosthetics and orthotics, and a sports medicine clinic. The candidate may also see sports medicine patients in local outreach clinics. The candidate will perform surgery in both the in-patient and the out-patient areas of the UVA Health System.
