Full time Pediatric Psychologist position will open with an anticipated starting date of September, 2014. The position comes with a full time faculty appointment at the rank of Assistant Professor in the Section of Psychology, Department of Pediatrics, Baylor College of Medicine. Duties involve direct patient care through an integrated behavioral health model in a new primary care medical home for pregnant women, children and families covered by the Texas Children's Health Plan. The location of the Center will be Southwest Houston. The Psychologist will also lead a team of behavioral health providers.
