Loma Linda University School of Medicine is seeking a dynamic, academic preventive medicine physician for the role of Chair of the Department of Preventive Medicine.

This is an exciting opportunity to provide leadership and oversight to a group of dedicated providers, serving a large population in Southern California. The Department of Preventive Medicine is involved in preventive medicine clinical care, education, and research for the School of Medicine. The department provides a comprehensive, four-year preventive medicine curriculum to all medical students. Graduate medical education training is available in a general preventive medicine residency, an occupational medicine residency, an addiction medicine fellowship, and a combined family and preventive medicine residency.

The department works with and supports the School of Public Health, as well as other Loma Linda University programs in health promotion and epidemiology research projects—the most prominent being the Adventist Health Study. Preventive medicine faculty members direct clinical services at the Center for Health Promotion, the Occupational Medicine Center, the Social Action Community (SAC) Health System clinics as well as five separate Inland Empire university health services. A diverse faculty focuses primary activities through the School of Medicine, the School of Public Health, the Jerry L. Pettis Memorial Veterans Medical Center, the San Bernardino County and Riverside County health departments, and other regional and community entities.

Our department currently has 50+ attending physicians and 20+ adjunct faculty. Training Preventive Medicine Residents since 1979, there are 4 PGY-1. Among preventive medicine training programs, we are particularly distinguished by our emphasis on clinical prevention and lifestyle medicine. We provide many lifestyle medicine training opportunities and excel in training physicians who can address the chronic disease pandemics of obesity, diabetes and tobacco dependence.

The Chair oversees all aspects of service line quality, operations, and growth as well as supporting the established and accredited residency and fellowship programs. The Chair will work directly with the Dean of School of Medicine and the President of Loma Linda University Faculty Medical Group (LLUFMG). LLUFMG is the employment corporation for over 1400 clinicians working at LLU Health and is an equal opportunity employer.
