Physician Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a physician in Arizona?
To practice medicine in Arizona, you must obtain a license from the Arizona Medical Board, which requires completion of an accredited MD or DO program, graduation from residency, and passing the USMLE or COMLEX licensing exam series. The Arizona Medical Board handles all allopathic physician licensure, while the Arizona Board of Osteopathic Examiners covers DO licensure. Arizona participates in the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact, which can streamline licensure for physicians already licensed in other compact member states.
Which companies hire physicians in Arizona?
Employers hiring physicians in Arizona right now include CVS Health, HonorHealth, and US Department of Veterans Affairs, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Arizona's largest health systems, including integrated networks serving both the greater Phoenix metro and rural communities, maintain year-round physician recruitment programs across specialties.
Which Arizona cities have the most physician jobs?
Tucson, Phoenix, and Scottsdale have the most physician openings in Arizona. Phoenix drives the largest share of volume as home to Banner Health's flagship hospitals, Valleywise Health, and a dense network of multispecialty groups, while Tucson's concentration around Banner University Medical Center and the University of Arizona Health Sciences makes it the state's second-largest physician market.
Are there remote physician jobs in Arizona?
Yes, but they're rare. About 24% of physician openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting the hands-on clinical nature of most physician roles. The positions most likely to include remote components are telehealth primary care, utilization management, and physician advisor roles that do not require in-person patient contact.
How can I get hired as a physician in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is securing a residency-to-employment pipeline through a large Arizona health system. Banner Health, Valleywise Health, and Dignity Health all sponsor residency and fellowship programs that regularly convert to full attending positions. New graduates without a completed residency should target transitional year or preliminary residency slots at Arizona teaching hospitals, and obtaining Arizona Medical Board licensure early strengthens any application significantly.
Where can I find and apply to physician jobs in Arizona?
