Movement Disorders Neurologist
Round Rock, Texas (Greater Austin)
Established Referral Base | DBS + Toxins | Clinical Research Infrastructure
The Austin market continues to see significant demand for subspecialty movement disorders care, with limited fellowship-trained capacity and growing need for Parkinson’s disease management, advanced therapeutics, and clinical research access.
We are seeking a Movement Disorders Neurologist — or a neurologist with a strong and sustained movement disorders focus — to join our established outpatient neurology and clinical research program in Round Rock, Texas, just outside of Austin.
This is a unique opportunity to build a high-acuity movement disorders practice alongside an established, nationally recognized movement disorders researcher with deep industry relationships, active clinical trials, and a substantial existing referral network.
You will step into immediate demand with an established waitlist, robust sponsor-supported research infrastructure, and the ability to practice advanced movement disorders medicine in a highly collaborative, physician-centered environment.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Established and growing movement disorders referral base
Immediate access to a substantial patient waitlist
Work directly alongside a nationally recognized movement disorders researcher
Active industry-sponsored clinical trial program already in place
DBS programming with support from all major device representatives
In-office botulinum toxin program already operational
Outpatient-only practice
Monday–Friday schedule
Strong operational and research infrastructure with dedicated support staff
Opportunity to meaningfully shape and expand a movement disorders center in one of the fastest-growing regions in the country
Clinical Focus
This role is intentionally structured around movement disorders care, including:
Parkinson’s disease
Atypical parkinsonian syndromes
Essential tremor
Dystonia
Dyskinesias
Advanced movement disorders management
DBS programming
Botulinum toxin procedures
There is flexibility to incorporate selected general neurology interests based on your experience and preferences, but the core identity of this role is movement disorders medicine.
Research Opportunities
This position is ideal for physicians who want to integrate meaningful clinical research into their practice without having to build infrastructure independently.
You will have access to:
Established sponsor relationships
Dedicated research coordinators and operational support
Existing and upcoming movement disorders trials
Built-in research patient flow from an active referral base and waitlist
Depending on experience and interest, the role may include:
Principal Investigator (PI) responsibilities
Sub-Investigator (Sub-I) participation with mentorship and development support
Research participation is encouraged, but the structure can be tailored to your background and long-term goals.
Practice Environment & Support
You will join a collaborative outpatient neurology group that prioritizes physician support, sustainable growth, and subspecialty development.
Infrastructure includes:
Dedicated MA support
Established referral pipelines
Structured clinical ramp-up
NP support as your panel matures
In-office DBS programming support
In-office toxin program
Experienced research operations team
Administrative support for scheduling, referrals, and research coordination
This is a highly collegial environment designed for physicians who value collaboration over competition.
Ideal Candidate
MD or DO
Board Certified or Board Eligible in Neurology
Movement Disorders fellowship preferred, but not required
Strong clinical interest and experience in movement disorders
Interest in DBS and/or toxin management preferred
Clinical research experience welcomed, but not required
Collaborative, patient-centered approach to care
Compensation & Benefits
Competitive compensation package
Productivity incentive opportunity
Additional research-related compensation available
Comprehensive benefits package
CME support
Relocation assistance available
