Job Opportunity: Pediatric Interventional Radiologist

In response to our ongoing growth and commitment to the well-being of our faculty, we are seeking a full-time pediatric interventional radiologist to join our Section of Pediatric Interventional Radiology.

Our section conducts over 7,500 image-guided procedures annually and is currently comprised of four dedicated pediatric interventional radiologists. We are supported by five advanced practice providers (APPs) and a Care Navigator, facilitating both inpatient and outpatient services. Our interventions encompass a wide range of procedures, including:

• Vascular access
• Treatment of vascular malformations
• Hepatobiliary procedures
• Enteral procedures
• Musculoskeletal procedures
• Angiography
• Embolization
• DVT/PE lysis

Additionally, we have a specialized pediatric neurointerventional radiologist on our team. Our section boasts a rich history of clinical excellence and is actively involved in teaching both internally and externally. We participate in various multispecialty programs, including a vascular anomalies clinic, and are affiliated with several centers of excellence, such as the Heart Center and the Center for Cancer & Blood Disorders.

The interventional radiology department is equipped with two Philips DSA rooms (one featuring biplane technology), dedicated ultrasound facilities in each room, an IR-only pre-procedure area, and a consultation room. We anticipate the addition of another biplane DSA room by 2027. A separate minor procedures room is available for low-complexity interventions, and our pediatric anesthesiologists provide specialized anesthesia services. Our team enjoys a collaborative relationship among IR nurses, technologists, and physicians.

The Division of Radiology consists of 31 full-time radiologists, each specializing in Body, Neuro, and Interventional Radiology. We encourage participation in research, supported by a radiation physicist/imaging scientist and a dedicated research coordinator. Faculty members have the opportunity to hold appointments at the University of Arizona College of Medicine (Phoenix), Mayo Clinic, and Creighton University School of Medicine (Phoenix). Our active teaching and research program includes three ACGME-accredited Pediatric Radiology fellowship positions, along with two additional non-accredited fellowships (Neuro and Pediatric Interventional Radiology), as well as opportunities for fellows, residents, and medical students from affiliated programs.

Our main campus is a freestanding 533-bed Level 1 children's hospital, recognized as the largest pediatric facility in the Southwestern United States.

• MD or DO degree, or equivalent
• Completion of an ACGME-accredited diagnostic or interventional radiology residency
• Completion of an ACGME-accredited Pediatric Radiology or Adult Interventional Radiology fellowship (if diagnostic radiology residency was completed)
• Completion of a Pediatric Interventional Radiology fellowship (preferred, but negotiable; the last hire completed an ACGME IR/DR residency without a supplemental fellowship)
• ABR certified or eligible
• Eligible for licensure in Arizona

We are an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer. Interested candidates are encouraged to submit their CVs for consideration.
