OB/GYN Physician Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a ob/gyn physician in California?

To become an ob/gyn physician in California, you must complete a four-year medical degree followed by a four-year ACGME-accredited OB/GYN residency, then obtain a California Physician and Surgeon license through the Medical Board of California. You must also register with the California Department of Justice for controlled substance prescribing. Board certification through the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, while not legally required, is expected by nearly all California employers.

How much do OB/GYN physicians make in California?

OB/GYN physicians in California earn a median of about $301,240 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $103,330 for the lowest 10% to over $401,440 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire ob/gyn physicians in California?

Employers hiring ob/gyn physicians in California right now include CommonSpirit Health, Dignity Health, and Sutter Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of June 2026. California's size and density of academic medical centers, federally qualified health centers, and large integrated systems means ob/gyn openings appear consistently across both major metros and underserved rural communities throughout the state.

Which California cities have the most ob/gyn physician jobs?

The cities with the most ob/gyn physician openings in California are Santa Cruz, Carmichael, and Crescent City. Los Angeles and San Francisco anchor the market due to the concentration of major health systems, academic hospitals, and large multispecialty groups, while cities like San Diego and Sacramento draw steady demand from military medical centers, UC Health campuses, and growing suburban populations that support both private practices and community health organizations.

Are there remote ob/gyn physician jobs in California?

Yes, but they are rare. OB/GYN is a hands-on surgical and procedural specialty, and the overwhelming majority of positions require in-person patient care. About 0% of ob/gyn physician openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of June 2026, and those positions typically involve telehealth gynecology consultations, administrative medical director work, or utilization review rather than obstetric or surgical care.

How can I get hired as a ob/gyn physician in California with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying directly out of residency to hospital-employed or large group positions that explicitly recruit new attendings, which Kaiser Permanente, Dignity Health, and the UC Health system regularly do through formal new-physician onboarding programs. Community health centers and federally qualified health clinics in California, including those serving underserved areas, frequently prioritize new graduates willing to commit to underserved populations. Completing a California residency strengthens your candidacy because you arrive with existing relationships and in-state licensing already in progress.

Where can I find and apply to ob/gyn physician jobs in California?

You can find and apply to ob/gyn physician jobs in California on Migrate Mate, which lists current California openings updated regularly. Search the available roles, find positions that match your specialty and location preferences, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
