The Department of Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery at the University of Florida is seeking a Pediatric Otolaryngologist for a full-time academic faculty position at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level. Rank, track, and tenure status will be commensurate with experience.

The successful candidate will provide comprehensive pediatric otolaryngology care in both inpatient and outpatient settings, supported by advanced practice providers and residents.
