Job Description & Requirements

Pediatric Pathologist

StartDate: ASAP Pay Rate: $300000.00 - $419000.00

Discover an opportunity to join a pediatric-focused pathology program in Coastal Virginia. Children’s Specialty Group (CSG), in partnership with Children’s Hospital of The King’s Daughters (CHKD) and Old Dominion University, is seeking a board-certified AP/CP Pathologist to join an established and collaborative team.

This position is based within a children’s hospital and will focus primarily on pediatric pathology. The team is open to both fellowship-trained pediatric pathologists and general pathologists with interest or experience in pediatric cases.

Opportunity Highlights

• Private practice model with a clear path to partnership and long-term stability
• Pediatric-focused case mix within a leading children’s hospital, with flexibility based on background and experience
• Join a collegial team of 3 pathologists with strong collaboration and shared case coverage
• Practice includes a mix of surgical and clinical pathology, rotated among the group based on schedule and individual preferences
• Approximately 6,000 surgical specimens annually, including oncology cases, GI biopsies, and bone marrow work
• Balanced call structure (approximately 1:4), with shared responsibilities across the team
• Team-based environment with no solo coverage and consistent support in both surgical and clinical settings
• Flexible scheduling model designed to adapt to physician needs and promote long-term sustainability
• Strong focus on quality care and manageable workload, not high-volume production expectations

What to Expect

• Rotation between surgical pathology and clinical responsibilities, with flexibility built into the schedule
• Exposure to a broad range of pediatric cases within a leading free-standing children’s hospital in Virginia
• Collaborative coverage model where pathologists support one another and share responsibilities
• Opportunity to build a long-term role with greater control over schedule and day-to-day practice

Ideal for

• Mid- to late-career pathologists seeking improved work-life balance
• Early-career physicians looking for a stable, supportive environment to grow

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• True lifestyle-focused position within pathology, offering greater control over schedule and workload compared to larger academic or high-volume private groups
• Ability to practice pediatric-focused pathology without being siloed or isolated
• Supportive, team-oriented environment with shared coverage and flexibility
• Private practice structure with partnership and equity potential, offering long-term stability and upside
