Family Medicine Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a family medicine in Pennsylvania?
To practice family medicine in Pennsylvania you must hold a medical degree from an accredited institution, complete an accredited family medicine residency, and obtain a license from the Pennsylvania State Board of Medicine. The Board requires passing USMLE or COMLEX examinations and a criminal background check. After licensure, board certification through the American Board of Family Medicine strengthens your candidacy with most Pennsylvania employers and health systems.
How much do family medicines make in Pennsylvania?
Family medicines in Pennsylvania earn a median of about $306,030 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $156,000 for the lowest 10% to over $413,250 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire family medicines in Pennsylvania?
Employers hiring family medicines in Pennsylvania right now include Penn Medicine, Purple Cow Recruiting, and Lehigh Valley Health Network, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Pennsylvania's large integrated health systems, federally qualified health centers, and rural health networks are among the most consistent sources of family medicine openings across the state.
Which Pennsylvania cities have the most family medicine jobs?
Philadelphia, Lancaster, and Pittsburgh have the most family medicine openings in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia's dense population and concentration of academic medical centers and community health organizations drive the highest volume, while Pittsburgh's major health systems and Harrisburg's regional medical infrastructure sustain steady hiring, and smaller markets like Allentown and Scranton reflect the state's broad rural and suburban primary care needs.
Are there remote family medicine jobs in Pennsylvania?
Yes, but they're rare. Family medicine is a hands-on clinical discipline and the large majority of Pennsylvania roles require in-person patient care. About 12% of family medicine openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those positions are almost exclusively in telehealth primary care, chronic disease management, or administrative medical director roles rather than traditional outpatient practice.
How can I get hired as a family medicine in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing your family medicine residency through a Pennsylvania program, as systems like UPMC, Penn Medicine, and Geisinger operate accredited residencies that frequently convert residents into employed physicians. New graduates without independent experience should target federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics, which actively recruit early-career physicians. Obtaining your Pennsylvania State Board of Medicine license and American Board of Family Medicine eligibility before applying gives candidates a clear hiring advantage.
Where can I find and apply to family medicine jobs in Pennsylvania?
You can find and apply to family medicine jobs in Pennsylvania on Migrate Mate, which lists current Pennsylvania openings across health systems, community health organizations, and private practices. Find the roles that fit your background and apply directly to each one.
