In addition, the position is embedded with outpatient clinics for the heart and lung transplant services, and will aim to build additional ID outpatient services for the oncology and SCT populations. Depending on the candidate’s other activities and experience, a small amount of outpatient activity may be spent in pediatric HIV care or general ID clinic.
