DEI Talent Acquisition Recruiter, County of Santa Clara - WE'RE HIRING!! Full-Time Transgender/Gender Health Medical Director for Large Public Health and Hospital System in Silicon Valley
Better Health for All
Santa Clara Valley Healthcare (SCVH), a large public teaching healthcare system, affiliated with Stanford University School of Medicine, is seeking a full‑time Transgender/Gender Health Physician to lead the multi‑disciplinary Gender Health Clinic for our health and hospital system.
We offer the unparalleled opportunity to gain the long‑term personal and professional satisfaction of serving our patients and the public, while teaching the next generation of health care providers, in one of the best places to live in the United States.
About Our Organization Santa Clara Valley Healthcare (SCVH) is the second‑largest County‑owned health and hospital system in California and is committed to improving the health of the 1.9 million people of Santa Clara County. SCVH comprises four hospitals: Santa Clara Valley Medical Center (SCVMC – a 731‑bed central hospital), O’Connor Hospital (OCH – 358 licensed beds), Saint Louise Regional Hospital (SLRH – 93 licensed beds) and Regional Medical Center (RMC – 258 licensed beds). In addition, SCVH includes a network of primary care clinics comprised of eleven health centers throughout the County, several urgent care clinics, dental services, primary care behavioral health services, and a broad range of specialty services in our Valley Specialty Center.
SCVMC hosts four residency programs and one fellowship training program, and partners with Stanford University SOM and Stanford Healthcare for the clinical training of medical students, residents, and fellows. SCVMC is an ACS‑verified Level 1 Trauma Center, a Level 2 Pediatric Trauma Center, an ABA‑verified Burn Center, a Primary Stroke Center, a Level 4 NICU, and a nationally recognized CARF‑accredited Rehabilitation Center. Owing to its geographic location and specialty offerings, SCVMC not only serves the County, but also the larger region.
Providers in our health system also have the opportunity to use our integrated electronic health record (Epic), which brings together system‑wide patient information. The Health Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) recognized SCVMC for achieving its highest level of success (Stage 7), based on our continuous innovation and optimization of our inpatient and outpatient EHR.
About the Community SCVH is located in San Jose, California, in the heart of Silicon Valley, offering a diverse choice of cultural, recreational, and lifestyle opportunities. Our physicians live in a range of communities, including urban (e.g., San Francisco), university (e.g., Palo Alto), high tech (e.g., many cities of Silicon Valley), mountain (e.g., Los Gatos), beach (e.g., Santa Cruz), and rural/agricultural (e.g., Morgan Hill and Gilroy). Situated in one of the most desirable regions of the country – only 45 minutes from the Monterey Bay and three hours from the Sierra Nevada – our physicians have the opportunity to enjoy a very high quality of life.

The clinic provides primary care to our transgender/gender expansive patients, including preventative health, disease management, hormonal therapy and surgical treatment for gender transition. This physician will also provide clinical consultation and guidance to other primary care providers at the Gender Health Clinic and other SCVMC clinics, regarding transgender/gender expansive patients, with the ultimate goal of strengthening clinical care across our health and hospital system.
