Oncologist Jobs in Missouri: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a oncologist in Missouri?

To practice as an oncologist in Missouri, you must hold a medical degree, complete a residency, and finish a fellowship in your oncology subspecialty, then obtain a full medical license from the Missouri State Board of Registration for the Healing Arts. Missouri also requires a separate state-issued controlled substance license and an unrestricted DEA registration. Board certification in your specialty, while not always legally required, is expected by most Missouri employers and hospital credentialing committees.

How much do oncologists make in Missouri?

Oncologists in Missouri earn a median of about $112,260 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $58,490 for the lowest 10% to over $226,650 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire oncologists in Missouri?

Employers hiring oncologists in Missouri right now include SSM Health, Mercy, and OneOncology, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Missouri's large academic health systems and dedicated cancer centers drive the bulk of full-time oncologist openings in the state.

Which Missouri cities have the most oncologist jobs?

The Missouri cities with the most oncologist openings are Kansas City, Duval, and Festus. St. Louis leads because of its concentration of academic medical centers and NCI-designated cancer programs, while Kansas City's large regional health systems sustain steady demand, and mid-size markets like Columbia benefit from the University of Missouri Health Care anchoring local hiring.

Are there remote oncologist jobs in Missouri?

Yes, but they're rare. About 13% of oncologist openings tied to Missouri are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting that most oncology work requires direct patient contact, imaging review, and in-person procedures. The portions of the role most suited to remote work include telehealth follow-up consultations, tumor board meetings, and second-opinion reads for imaging or pathology.

How can I get hired as a oncologist in Missouri with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is securing a fellowship match at a Missouri institution before pursuing attending roles, since employers require completed subspecialty training rather than work history. Large Missouri systems like University of Missouri Health Care and SSM Health operate structured onboarding tracks for newly fellowship-trained physicians entering their first attending position. Candidates who obtain Missouri licensure early, achieve board eligibility promptly after fellowship, and gain exposure to multidisciplinary tumor boards during training stand out most to credentialing committees at Missouri hospitals.

Where can I find and apply to oncologist jobs in Missouri?

You can find and apply to oncologist jobs in Missouri on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers hiring across the state. Search the listings to find roles that match your subspecialty and location, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
