We are a nonprofit, integrated medical group consisting of over 450 healthcare providers across more than 25 medical and surgical specialties, dedicated to serving the greater Phoenix area. We are currently looking for a Maternal-Fetal Medicine (MFM) physician to become part of our collaborative and mission-oriented team at Valleywise Health Medical Center (VHMC).

This role emphasizes a consultation-based MFM practice , offering a distinctive chance to provide specialized, high-quality care without the responsibilities of delivery . Physicians in this position will concentrate on high-risk obstetric consultations, advanced ultrasound techniques, prenatal diagnostics, and multidisciplinary care. The practice is designed to promote both clinical excellence and a healthy work-life balance.

VHMC acts as the safety-net hospital for Maricopa County, catering to a diverse and medically intricate patient population. MFM physicians will engage with patients in both outpatient and inpatient settings and will share home call responsibilities for VHMC and the Arizona Perinatal Program. The clinical program encompasses comprehensive high-risk obstetric services, including ultrasound, diagnostic testing, genetic counseling, and diabetes education, enabling physicians to operate at the full spectrum of consultative maternal-fetal medicine.

This position provides significant opportunities for teaching, mentoring, and influencing the next generation of physicians through academic involvement and leadership roles. MFM physicians at our organization serve as core faculty for the integrated OB/GYN Residency and MFM Fellowship in collaboration with Creighton University, hosted at VHMC and St. Joseph's Hospital/Dignity Health. The program accommodates 32 residents and one MFM fellow annually, fostering a vibrant and dynamic educational atmosphere.

The practice is further enhanced by academic partnerships with Creighton University, the University of Arizona College of Medicine, Mayo Clinic, and Arizona State University, offering opportunities for academic appointments and teaching medical students from these institutions. Physicians are encouraged to participate in clinical research, quality improvement projects, and scholarly activities, with numerous opportunities in areas such as healthcare disparities, refugee women's health, and federally funded research initiatives.

In addition to clinical and academic experiences, we provide an exceptional work environment characterized by collegiality, collaboration, and a shared dedication to serving underserved communities. This practice supports physicians in their professional development while engaging in meaningful work that enhances maternal and fetal health outcomes.

Living in Phoenix offers an excellent quality of life, featuring over 300 days of sunshine annually, a vibrant cultural and culinary scene, and easy access to outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, and weekend getaways to stunning locations like Sedona and the Grand Canyon. Phoenix combines the conveniences of a major city with a friendly and livable atmosphere, making it an ideal place to establish both a career and a home.

Qualifications include an M.D. or D.O. degree, board certification or eligibility in Maternal-Fetal Medicine, and eligibility for medical licensure in Arizona. Candidates should exhibit a strong commitment to clinical excellence, education, and collaborative care.

We offer a highly competitive compensation and benefits package, which includes generous paid time off, a CME allowance with dedicated CME time, and employer-covered malpractice insurance.
