Which companies hire physician - emergency medicines in Pennsylvania?
Employers hiring physician - emergency medicines in Pennsylvania right now include TeamHealth, Geisinger, and Lehigh Valley Health Network, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Pennsylvania's large integrated health systems and academic medical centers drive the majority of permanent positions, particularly in urban and suburban markets where high emergency department volume creates ongoing staffing demand.
Which Pennsylvania cities have the most physician - emergency medicine jobs?
Wilkes-Barre, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh account for the most physician - emergency medicine openings in Pennsylvania.

Fellowship training in critical care, pediatric emergency medicine, or emergency ultrasound adds a measurable edge in Pennsylvania's competitive academic markets. Locum tenens assignments at rural Pennsylvania critical access hospitals are another concrete way to build attending experience and establish relationships with permanent employers.
