TMC Radiology Department Mission

• Treat the patient, not the images.
• Be a center of creativity in physician education and scientific innovation.

About the role

The Department of Radiology at Tufts Medical Center and Tufts University School of Medicine seek an Academic Late Shift Radiologist at Tufts Medical Center. Your work schedule will be the 5:00 PM-2:00 AM shift, 7 days on 14 days off, 100% remote work (we will provide a home workstation). The late-shift division includes two other late shift radiologists who will also be working one week on and two weeks off. Candidates must be proficient in neuro and abdominal imaging and have experience with interpreting general modalities (CT, MRI, US, XR, occasional emergent NM). There is no requirement for performing any interventional procedures. On-call radiology residents are on duty on site at TMC and the late shift attending will work with them throughout their shift. Zoom is available to review cases with the residents remotely for the purpose of education and training. Late shift attending radiologists are encouraged to communicate frequently with the on-call residents to facilitate efficient patient care.

Opportunities for internal moonlighting are available for those interested in earning additional income (this is voluntary).

Academic productivity, teaching contributions, and clinical work-based incentives are available and paid annually at the time of annual performance review with the Chair.
