    I haven't seen job descriptions in publications, but in different fields that may be different.

    By "job description", do you mean your affiliation?

Write your affiliation similar to how you'll do it with a university.

First Last
[Designation,] Dept., Institution

If your hospital does not split members into departments, then Dept. part can be omitted.

Examples:

Aaron Stone
Neurosurgeon, XYZ Clinic

Cathy Miller
Researcher, Cancer Research Lab, BCD Hospital

Greg Thompson
Cryogenics, GHI Health Institute

Note that it is not always necessary to include your designation (job description), unless the publisher asks for it.

  • @AalaaElsadek Yes. The city and country may not be necessary in most cases.
