J1 Visa Sponsorship Available

Carilion Clinic and the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine are searching for a Regional General Psychiatrist to join a dynamic, collaborative team serving communities across Roanoke and the New River Valley, Virginia.

This is more than a traditional psychiatry role—it’s an opportunity to expand your clinical reach, engage in academic medicine, and build a fulfilling career in a region consistently recognized for its exceptional quality of life.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

A Diverse, Engaging Practice
Step into a role that spans inpatient, ambulatory, and emergency psychiatry, allowing you to develop a broad, well-rounded skill set. You’ll care for patients across multiple settings, keeping your work both intellectually stimulating and professionally rewarding.

Academic Collaboration & Teaching
As part of a partnership with the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine, you’ll have the opportunity to teach and mentor medical students, residents, and advanced practice providers—adding a meaningful academic dimension to your career.

A System Designed for Physicians
Carilion Clinic is a physician-led, integrated health system serving over one million people. You’ll work within a supportive, interdisciplinary network that prioritizes patient care while empowering physicians to thrive.

Impact Where It Matters Most
From crisis intervention in the emergency department to ongoing outpatient care, you’ll play a vital role in improving access to high-quality mental health services across the region.

Live Where Others Vacation

The New River Valley and Roanoke region offer an unmatched blend of natural beauty, affordability, and vibrant community life:

• Top-rated area for quality of life and livability
• Low cost of living with access to beautiful homes and communities
• Endless outdoor recreation—Blue Ridge Mountains, Appalachian Trail, New River, and more
• Thriving college-town atmosphere with Virginia Tech and Radford University
• Family-friendly, safe communities with excellent schools

This is a place where your career and personal life can both flourish.

What You Bring

• Board-certified or board-eligible in Psychiatry
• Completion of an accredited Psychiatry residency
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills
• A commitment to collaborative, patient-centered care
