Practice Cognitive Medicine the way you imagined.

A highly respected nonprofit cognitive and movement disorders clinic in Charlotte, NC is seeking neurologists with interest/expertise in dementia care.

This is a rare opportunity to practice dementia care in a relational, time-intensive model — free from RVU pressure and high-volume clinic expectations. A truly time-intensive care model featuring 2-hour new patient visits, 1-hour follow-ups, and a thoughtfully structured schedule of just 6–7 patients per day — with dedicated caregiver time built into every appointment.
