System Executive Medical Director, Neurosciences
Lead the Brain Trust. Shape the Region.
This is not maintenance. It s legacy.
Rochester Regional Health seeks a bold, emotionally intelligent physician leader to serve as our next System Executive Medical Director of Neurosciences . You won t walk into chaos. You ll walk into momentum. And you ll be expected to do what few can: unify, accelerate, and redefine neurosciences across a system already built for scale.
Why Now? This opportunity wasn t born of crisis it was built by vision. Following the loss of our inaugural EMD, who laid the foundation for integrated neurosciences across the region, we re not searching for someone to fill a shadow. We re inviting someone to advance a legacy.
The team is aligned. The strategy is approved. The referrals are real. This is the moment to scale what s working and solve what s not. This is not a speculative rebuild it s a board-backed growth mandate with the funding, teams, and structure already in place.

A physician-led platform that spans neurology, neurosurgery, stroke , and PM&R across 8 hospitals and 600+ care sites
A dyad governance model built on trust, visibility, and operational alignment
A growing team of neurologists with subspecialty depth in stroke, epilepsy, memory, headache, movement, and neurohospitalist care
Neurosurgeons trained in DBS, LITT, RNS, and complex cerebrovascular and spinal procedures
A regional PM&R infrastructure anchored by the Golisano Restorative Neurology & Rehabilitation Center , CARF-accredited and best-in-class
Systemwide technology like RapidAI, Brainlab, IONM, and O-arm , plus a genomics partnership with Helix
What Success Looks Like
Unified workflows and a single stroke playbook
Subspecialist recruitment that reduces 3-6 month wait times
Retention strategies that keep APPs and subspecialists engaged
Telestroke and Teleneuro expansion to rural and underserved markets
Consistent experience and access across urban, suburban, and regional facilities
