Oncologist Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a oncologist in Massachusetts?
To practice as an oncologist in Massachusetts, you must hold an active medical license issued by the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine, which requires completing medical school, a residency in internal medicine or a related field, and an accredited oncology fellowship. Board certification in medical, radiation, or hematologic oncology strengthens your candidacy considerably. Most Massachusetts hospital systems and academic centers require board certification or documented eligibility before granting clinical privileges.
How much do oncologists make in Massachusetts?
Oncologists in Massachusetts earn a median of about $106,060 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $62,670 for the lowest 10% to over $164,530 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire oncologists in Massachusetts?
Employers hiring oncologists in Massachusetts right now include Harvard Medical Faculty Physicians at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical Faculty Physicians, and Boston University, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Massachusetts's concentration of NCI-designated cancer centers and large academic health systems means hiring tends to be consistent year-round rather than purely seasonal.
Which Massachusetts cities have the most oncologist jobs?
The cities with the most oncologist openings in Massachusetts are Boston, Fitchburg, and Waltham. Boston dominates because of its dense cluster of academic medical centers and comprehensive cancer programs, while Worcester's demand is driven by UMass Memorial Health and its affiliated teaching network, and smaller metros often reflect community health system expansions serving regional patient populations.
Are there remote oncologist jobs in Massachusetts?
Yes, but they're rare. About 6% of oncologist openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, which reflects the largely hands-on, patient-facing nature of the role. The portions of oncology work most suited to remote arrangements include telehealth follow-up visits, tumor board consultations, and second-opinion review services.
How can I get hired as a oncologist in Massachusetts with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing your oncology fellowship at a Massachusetts institution such as Dana-Farber, Massachusetts General Hospital, or UMass Medical School, since many systems hire directly from their own training programs. New graduates should target hospitalist oncology or hematology-oncology associate positions at community hospitals affiliated with larger systems, which typically carry lighter independent practice expectations. Securing board eligibility, obtaining your Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine license promptly, and building familiarity with tumor board workflows gives candidates a measurable edge in a competitive market.
Where can I find and apply to oncologist jobs in Massachusetts?
You can find and apply to oncologist jobs in Massachusetts on Migrate Mate, which lists current Massachusetts openings from hospitals, cancer centers, and health systems across the state. Find the roles that fit your specialty and experience level and apply directly.
