Job Description

Faculty Interventional Radiologist at the University of Alabama at Birmingham

The Department of Radiology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) seeks a full-time interventional radiologist to join its expanding Division of Interventional Radiology. UAB Medicine is a state-of-the-art academic medical center located in the vibrant city of Birmingham, Alabama.

About the Division

Our robust IR division includes ten full-time faculty members, six physician assistants, and all ACGME-accredited interventional radiology residency training pathways. The incoming faculty member will support continued growth across inpatient and outpatient services at UAB Hospital, Children's of Alabama, and The Kirklin Clinic of UAB Hospital — all conveniently located on the same campus, facilitating streamlined multidisciplinary collaboration.

We foster a friendly, collaborative, and inclusive work environment with strong support for academic and professional growth. Faculty benefit from a wide scope of procedures with flexibility to cultivate individual procedural interests and subspecialty niches. Our section offers a rewarding and sustainable lifestyle, with a shared call structure and a focus on work-life balance.

Position Highlights

– Academic track position with opportunities for clinical, educational, and scholarly involvement

– Procedural variety across adult and pediatric care

– Active involvement in teaching IR/DR and DR residents as well as medical students

– Opportunities for research and scholarly work (encouraged but not required)

– Supportive, team-based environment emphasizing collaboration and mentorship

Work-Life Balance

While the IR role is primarily in-person due to the procedural nature of the specialty, we support sustainable work schedules with:

– Night and weekend call shared equitably

– Structured academic and non-clinical time for professional development

Qualifications

– Board certified or board eligible in Interventional Radiology (IR/DR or DR with CAQ)

– Completion of accredited interventional radiology training (residency or fellowship)

– Eligible for medical licensure in the state of Alabama

Academic rank, compensation, and tenure will depend on qualifications and experience.
