The Section of Hematology/Oncology at Boston University School of Medicine/Boston Medical Center is seeking an advanced practice provider to support its expanding program in sickle cell disease and red blood cell disorders.

Advanced practice providers work closely with physicians in a shared practice model. In addition to providing clinical care, advanced practice practitioners have opportunities to participate in clinical case conferences and teaching conferences.

Advance Practice providers receive faculty appointments in the Section of Hematology and Medical Oncology commensurate with their experience. NP or PA certification is required.
