<p>A nationally ranked, freestanding children's hospital in Detroit, Michigan is recruiting a Pediatric Radiologist to join a cohesive, collegial team reading exclusively pediatric studies — approximately 90,000 exams annually across the main campus and satellite locations. The practice combines full-spectrum pediatric imaging with an ACGME-accredited fellowship, daily teaching engagement, and a hybrid schedule that includes home PACS capability.
