Pulmonologist Jobs in Wisconsin: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a pulmonologist in Wisconsin?
Becoming a pulmonologist in Wisconsin requires completing medical school, an internal medicine residency, and a fellowship in pulmonary disease or pulmonary and critical care medicine accredited by ACGME. After training, you must obtain a full and unrestricted medical license through the Wisconsin Medical Examining Board before practicing in the state. Board certification through the American Board of Internal Medicine in pulmonary disease and critical care medicine is required by most Wisconsin health systems as a condition of employment or hospital privileges.
How much do pulmonologists make in Wisconsin?
Pulmonologists in Wisconsin earn a median of about $391,740 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $201,050 for the lowest 10% to over $478,990 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire pulmonologists in Wisconsin?
Wisconsin pulmonologist roles are posted by Medical College of Wisconsin, Emplify Health, and University of Wisconsin–Madison and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Wisconsin's largest hiring systems are typically integrated networks with both academic and community hospital campuses, meaning openings often include inpatient critical care coverage alongside outpatient pulmonary clinic responsibilities.
Which Wisconsin cities have the most pulmonologist jobs?
Milwaukee, New Berlin, and Mequon consistently lead Wisconsin for pulmonologist openings, reflecting where the state's largest health systems and academic medical centers operate. Milwaukee's concentration of tertiary care hospitals and UW Health's flagship campus in Madison generate the highest volume of positions, while Green Bay and other regional hubs support demand through community hospital networks serving smaller metropolitan and rural catchment areas.
Are there remote pulmonologist jobs in Wisconsin?
Yes, but they're rare. About 0% of pulmonologist openings tied to Wisconsin are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how fundamentally hands-on the specialty is. The portions of the role most compatible with remote work are outpatient telehealth follow-ups, pulmonary function test interpretation, and sleep study reads, while bronchoscopy, ICU rounding, and inpatient critical care require full on-site presence.
How can I get hired as a pulmonologist in Wisconsin with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying directly out of fellowship to new-graduate attending positions, which large Wisconsin systems such as Froedtert Health and UW Health routinely recruit for each match cycle. Academic positions at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health often welcome early-career physicians with research backgrounds. Candidates coming from internal medicine without fellowship training can pursue hospitalist or intensivist roles as a bridge while completing additional credentialing, and obtaining Wisconsin Medical Examining Board licensure well before your start date meaningfully shortens the hiring timeline.
Where can I find and apply to pulmonologist jobs in Wisconsin?
You can find and apply to pulmonologist jobs in Wisconsin on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers across the state. Find roles that fit your experience and specialty focus and apply directly to the positions that match.
