Rochester Regional Health (RRH) seeks a visionary and collaborative physician leader to serve as Service Line Division Head of Neurosurgery—a pivotal leadership role within one of the most comprehensive and advanced neurosciences platforms in the region.

Neurosciences Service Line—which includes Neurology, Stroke, and PM&R—positioning Neurosurgery as a cornerstone of RRH's regional care strategy.
