Job Description

As a specialist physician, your main tasks will be to conduct neuropsychiatric assessments of children and young people together with a psychologist according to national guidelines and BUP Stockholm's process maps. After the assessment, you will be responsible for medical treatment for ADHD. You will meet patients for initiation, follow-up, and evaluation of medication treatment in collaboration with a nurse.

You will provide support to colleagues during treatment conferences and assessment of cases based on your profession as a physician.
