Oncologist Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a oncologist in Pennsylvania?
To practice as an oncologist in Pennsylvania, you must hold an active license from the Pennsylvania State Board of Medicine, which requires a medical degree, completion of an accredited residency, and passing the USMLE or COMLEX series. After residency, a fellowship in medical oncology, radiation oncology, or hematology-oncology is required, followed by board certification. Pennsylvania does participate in interstate medical licensure compacts, which can streamline the process for physicians already licensed elsewhere.
How much do oncologists make in Pennsylvania?
Oncologists in Pennsylvania earn a median of about $103,150 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $70,570 for the lowest 10% to over $139,760 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire oncologists in Pennsylvania?
Employers hiring oncologists in Pennsylvania right now include WellSpan Health, BluePearl Pet Hospital, and Penn State Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Pennsylvania's concentration of large academic health systems and NCI-designated cancer centers means many postings come from institutions with dedicated oncology departments rather than standalone practices.
Which Pennsylvania cities have the most oncologist jobs?
Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Gettysburg have the most oncologist openings in Pennsylvania. Philadelphia leads because of its dense cluster of academic medical centers and NCI-designated cancer programs, while Pittsburgh's hiring is driven largely by UPMC's extensive oncology network, and Hershey draws demand through Penn State Health's cancer institute serving central Pennsylvania.
Are there remote oncologist jobs in Pennsylvania?
Yes, but they're rare. About 0% of oncologist openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting that most oncologist work requires in-person patient care. The portions of the role most likely to appear in remote or hybrid arrangements include tumor board consultations, second-opinion review, and telemedicine follow-up visits for established patients.
How can I get hired as a oncologist in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing a fellowship at a Pennsylvania institution such as Penn Medicine, UPMC, or Jefferson Health, which regularly recruit fellows into attending roles upon graduation. New attendings often start in an employed model within a large health system rather than an independent practice, which lowers the barrier to entry. Securing board eligibility before your first attending role and gaining experience with Epic during fellowship are the credentials Pennsylvania employers consistently cite as differentiators for candidates with limited post-training experience.
Where can I find and apply to oncologist jobs in Pennsylvania?
You can find and apply to oncologist jobs in Pennsylvania on Migrate Mate, which lists current Pennsylvania openings across health systems, cancer centers, and outpatient practices throughout the state. Find roles that fit your specialty and experience level and apply directly to the employers posting them.
