Summary

The Neuroscience Institute (NSI) of Penn Medicine Lancaster General Health is seeking a full-time Neuropsychologist to join its LGHP Neuropsychology practice. This provider will be responsible primarily for conducting comprehensive neuropsychological assessments through its adult outpatient and interdisciplinary LGHP Alzheimer’s and Memory Care teams.

Penn Medicine LGHP Neuropsychology has a robust clinical training program. In addition to their clinical responsibilities, this Neuropsychologist will be intricately involved in the training program, encompassing the team’s APA-accredited pre-doctoral internship and post-doctoral neuropsychology fellowship programs.

Staff Neuropsychologists at Penn Medicine LGHP Neuropsychology assess an array of presenting complaints with referrals originating predominantly from NSI neurology, primary care, and neurosurgery. Standard evaluations are related to dementia care, movement disorders (i.e, DBS evaluations), TBI/post-concussion syndrome management, and neuro-oncology/pre-surgical planning (e.g., fMRI mapping, NPH), among others.
