Which Arkansas cities have the most pathologist jobs?
Little Rock, Fort Smith, and Rogers have the most pathologist openings in Arkansas.

The most realistic entry path is completing a pathology residency at UAMS, which also offers fellowship tracks in surgical pathology and other subspecialties that transition directly into staff roles at affiliated institutions. New graduates should target staff pathologist openings at community hospital systems like Baptist Health and CHI St. Vincent, which periodically hire early-career candidates, or look for locum tenens positions through Arkansas pathology groups as a way to build local credentials and network into permanent roles.
