Regional Clinical Lead

This is an intensely collaborative role with the Regional Director of Clinical Operations (RDCO). Communication is a significant aspect of this role; when in doubt over-communication is better than lack thereof. This role will continue to evolve as the company grows. The regional lead clinician was developed out of a need for each clinician to have a go-to person for liaising between senior-level management and the clinicians/facilities.
