Responsibilities

Mayo Clinic in Arizona is seeking a medical Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) to join our nationally recognized team. This position requires advanced clinical expertise in the diagnosis and management of a broad spectrum of speech, language, cognitive, swallowing, and voice disorders. As part of a multidisciplinary team, the SLP will contribute to patient-centered care through evidence-based assessment and intervention in alignment with Mayo Clinic’s high standards of excellence, including the opportunity to serve as a clinical instructor for graduate students in speech pathology, clinical fellows, and other medical professionals. Depending on departmental assignment, the role includes specialized responsibilities and competencies tailored to patient populations within Neurology or Otorhinolaryngology.

This outpatient position is based on the Phoenix campus and provides evaluation and treatment for patients with a wide range of neurological diagnoses, including stroke, traumatic brain injury, neurodegenerative diseases, brain tumors, movement disorders, and other complex medical conditions.

The ideal candidate is clinically strong, highly organized, an excellent communicator, and passionate about delivering evidence-based care to medically complex adults while contributing to a collaborative and innovative Neurology program.
