Swiss letterhead
Hi,
I have a new letterhead from the Geneva University Hospitals from the General Internal Medicine Division.
Most of the doctors on this list are either "Médecin-adjoint agrégé/Responsable de secteur" or "Médecin-adjoint/Responsable de secteur"
I have already asked a question regarding "Médecin-adjoint agrégé" and now need help with "Responsable de secteur"
This is for the US.
Thanks
Joanna

At the Geneva University Hospitals, "secteurs" are thematic divisions, e.g. cardiovascular, neuroreanimation, etc. On an administrative levels, there are formalised in units, with a practicien in charge. "responsible" is not quite the right translation for "responsable". It is more "head of"
