About the job
Are you interested in paediatric radiology and looking for an environment where you can develop professionally while working more predictably than in a traditional German hospital setting?
In this specialised centre near the German border, you will find a modern paediatric radiology department with a broad diagnostic spectrum, close interdisciplinary collaboration, and clear senior consultant responsibility. Radiologists with initial experience or a special interest in paediatric imaging are especially welcome.
