Various medical and therapeutic disciplines work closely together, pooling their expertise to provide comprehensive, coordinated care for children and adolescents under one roof. The services include developmental paediatrics, psychology, children’s physiotherapy and occupational therapy.

The interprofessional collaboration enables short pathways, coordinated treatment concepts and holistic care that consistently focuses on the needs of children, adolescents and their families.

As a member of our team, you will take responsibility for your patients and actively help shape the establishment and further development of this pioneering outpatient children’s centre.

To strengthen our medical team, we are looking for a Senior Psychologist 50–100 % from 1 April 2027 or by arrangement.
