Seeking Geriatrician (Physician) - Employer: Cary S. Gunther, MD PhD PLLC

Location: 955 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY 10021

Job Type:

Part-time, with an opportunity to grow into full-time. A flexible schedule built around low patient volume and generous time for appointments.

Work Setting:

Structured in-person, outpatient schedule with after-hours telephone triage for urgent practice needs. No hospital call.

Practice Overview & Philosophy

Cary S. Gunther, MD, PhD, PLLC is an independent boutique practice on the Upper East Side of Manhattan dedicated to unhurried, deeply personalized care for individuals with neurocognitive disorders. Dr. Gunther is triple board-certified in neurology, psychiatry and brain injury medicine.

This practice operates outside the constraints of corporate, insurance-driven, high-volume medicine and provides evidence-based treatment for complex cognitive, mood and behavioral conditions. A foundational premise is that exceptional care requires time, diagnostic precision and genuine partnership with patients and their families. 

Position Overview

Patients living with cognitive decline have unique needs that transcend the bounds of neurology and psychiatry and are not met by the assembly-line approach that managed care attempts to dictate. We are seeking a Board-Certified Geriatrician to collaborate with Dr. Gunther in addressing these distinctive challenges. A geriatrician’s dual focus on specialist diagnostics and holistic care provides an ideal clinical balance for our practice model.

This is a specialist, consultative role focused on patients navigating cognitive impairment and complex neurodegenerative disease. While this is not a general primary care practice, physicians have full clinical autonomy to address co-occurring conditions as appropriate to provide comprehensive care for our patient cohort.

Clinical Responsibilities

· Specialized Consultations: Partner with Dr. Gunther on complex neurodegenerative cases, conducting thorough cognitive evaluations, functional assessments and individualized care strategies.

· Longitudinal Disease & Symptom Management: Formulate and guide management plans for patients navigating Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, behavioral disturbances and complex medical comorbidities.

· Outpatient Delirium & Acute Crisis Management: Engage proactive strategies to evaluate and manage delirium in the outpatient setting, actively preventing unnecessary emergency department visits and acute hospitalizations while facilitating safe, early transitions back home.

· Family & Caregiver Collaboration: Lead detailed family conferences to navigate disease progression, care transitions and family support.

· Goals of Care & Trajectory Planning: Draw upon palliative care principles as appropriate to assist families with advance care planning, goal alignment and optimizing quality of life throughout the course of neurodegenerative illness.

· Peer-to-Peer Collaboration: Work in a collegial, thoughtful environment to discuss complex diagnostic formulations, management strategies and challenging cases.

Qualifications:

· MD or DO degree.

· Completion of an accredited Geriatric Medicine Fellowship.

· Board Certification in Geriatric Medicine.

· Active or eligible New York State Medical License and DEA registration.

Location & Transit Access:

· Address: 955 Lexington Avenue (Upper East Side, Manhattan)

· Transit: Conveniently located near the 6 train (68th Street Station), Q train (72nd Street Station) and local bus routes (M98, M101, M102, M103 and M66).

Compensation

· Highly competitive compensation structure (guaranteed base hourly or per-session rate) reflecting boutique private practice care. Unhurried appointment slots (e.g., generous visit lengths) structured to prioritize patient outcomes over volume.
