Medical Oncologist Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a medical oncologist in Texas?
You must hold an active Texas Medical License issued by the Texas Medical Board before practicing in any clinical capacity in the state. The path includes a medical degree, completion of an internal medicine residency, and a fellowship in hematology-oncology at an accredited program. Board certification through the American Board of Internal Medicine in the Medical Oncology subspecialty is required or expected at virtually all Texas health systems and academic centers.
How much do medical oncologists make in Texas?
Medical oncologists in Texas earn a median of about $105,370 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $75,170 for the lowest 10% to over $259,320 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire medical oncologists in Texas?
Employers hiring medical oncologists in Texas right now include Houston Methodist, UT Southwestern Medical Center, and UTHealth Houston, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Texas's concentration of large integrated health systems and NCI-designated cancer centers means employer demand stays consistent year-round rather than spiking seasonally.
Which Texas cities have the most medical oncologist jobs?
Houston, Austin, and Dallas account for the largest share of medical oncologist openings in Texas. Houston leads because of its dense cluster of NCI-designated and major academic cancer programs, while Dallas and San Antonio draw volume from large integrated health systems and growing suburban cancer care networks that expand the opportunity well beyond downtown medical districts.
Are there remote medical oncologist jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're rare. Direct patient care, chemotherapy administration, and procedural work are inherently on-site, so most roles require in-person presence the majority of the time. About 29% of medical oncologist openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, and those openings are nearly always in tumor board consultation, second-opinion review, or telemedicine follow-up rather than primary treatment roles.
How can I get hired as a medical oncologist in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing a fellowship at a Texas institution, since programs at MD Anderson Cancer Center, UT Southwestern, and Baylor College of Medicine carry direct hiring pipelines into their faculty and affiliate practices. New fellowship graduates should target community oncology groups and regional health system positions, which hire at the attending level without requiring an established patient panel. Obtaining your Texas Medical Board license and DEA registration before the fellowship ends removes the single most common delay in the hiring process.
Where can I find and apply to medical oncologist jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to medical oncologist jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current Texas openings across health systems, academic centers, and community practices. Find the roles that fit your specialty and experience, then apply directly to each one.
