Job Description
The UTMB Department of Radiology invites applications from fellowship-trained, board-certified or board-eligible abdominal/body imaging radiologists to join our growing academic faculty. This is a rare opportunity to practice at a high-volume, technologically advanced academic medical center while contributing meaningfully to resident and fellow education, research, and the clinical mission of one of Texas's most distinguished institutions.
Essential Job Functions
UTMB Radiology is a vibrant, collegial academic practice operating across four hospital campuses in the Houston-Galveston corridor, including our flagship John Sealy Hospital in Galveston, a Level I trauma center, and community hospitals in League City and Clear Lake.

Our department trains 8 diagnostic radiology residents per year and hosts multiple subspecialty fellowship programs, giving faculty meaningful daily opportunities for case-based teaching, mentorship, and educational engagement. Faculty benefit from close collaboration with subspecialty colleagues across a true academic medical center, with the depth of institutional infrastructure including research support, GME infrastructure, and administrative resources — that a standalone community practice cannot offer.
