Nicklaus Children's Hospital, a 307-bed freestanding
children's hospital and ACS-verified Level 1 pediatric trauma center, and
Nicklaus Children’s Pediatric Specialists, the multi-specialty medical
group practice of Nicklaus Children's Health System, have an exceptional
opportunity for a full-time
Craniofacial Orthodontist. Applicants must be board
certified and/or board eligible by the American Board of Orthodontics and have completed a 12-month university or hospital-based
craniofacial orthodontics fellowship program. Candidates
should share Nicklaus Children’s commitment to delivering on its brand promise
of a care environment where every child matters most.
The Department of Pediatric
Dentistry at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital offers comprehensive dental services
for children of all ages from infants up to age 21. The Craniofacial Orthodontist will work on
behalf of the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, as well as in conjunction with our longstanding multidisciplinary Cleft and Craniofacial Team at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. This team includes
the specialties of Plastic Surgery, Otolaryngology,
Genetics, Audiology, Speech and Language Pathology, Psychology and Social Work. The program at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital
was designated in 1999 as the Craniofacial Center for South Florida by
Children’s Medical Services and is the largest such multidisciplinary team in the South
Florida area. With the addition of a Craniofacial Orthodontist, the
program is poised
to become a premier center
for advanced care of children with congenital craniofacial anomalies regionally, nationally and
internationally. Two
new state-of-the-art facilities, one at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital and one at
our main dental campus in the Doral area of South Florida, have been
specifically designed to meet the unique needs of our craniofacial patients, as
well as children and adolescents more generally. The Craniofacial Orthodontist
will have clinical opportunities to care for all populations of children, with
a specific focus on craniofacial patients as the program matures. In addition to clinical responsibilities, the candidate
will also
have the opportunity to engage in teaching, research, and scholarly activities.
Founded in 1950,
the rebranded Nicklaus Children’s Hospital is renowned for excellence in all
aspects of pediatric medicine and has numerous subspecialty programs that are
ranked among the best in the nation. It is also home to the largest pediatric
teaching program in the southeastern U.S. Our organization consistently appears

Care,” Becker’s “150 Great Places to Work in Healthcare,” Newsweek’s “America’s

their families through innovative and compassionate care. Comprehensive
benefits are available, in addition to a competitive financial package.
