Riley Children's Health is seeking a fellowship-trained licensed or license-eligible pediatric psychologist to provide clinical services at Riley Children's Hospital in Indianapolis, IN.  The successful candidate should display excellent skillset and compassionate care for patients with respiratory symptoms that are psychological in nature. This psychologist will specifically help with Riley’s High Risk Asthma Clinic and with other pulmonology patients who have comorbid respiratory and psychiatric symptoms.
