Radiologist Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a radiologist in California?

To become a radiologist in California, you must complete medical school, a diagnostic radiology residency accredited by the ACGME, and then obtain a full and unrestricted physician and surgeon license from the Medical Board of California. Many California hospitals also require board certification through the American Board of Radiology before granting independent privileges. Fellowship training in a subspecialty strengthens hiring prospects at major academic and health system employers.

How much do radiologists make in California?

Radiologists in California earn a median of about $270,560 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $96,610 for the lowest 10% to over $499,880 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire radiologists in California?

Employers hiring radiologists in California right now include CommonSpirit Health, University of California, San Francisco, and Alameda Health System, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. California's large integrated health systems, academic medical centers, and growing teleradiology groups generate steady demand for radiologists at multiple experience levels.

Which California cities have the most radiologist jobs?

San Francisco, Oakland, and Los Angeles have the most radiologist openings in California. Los Angeles and San Francisco drive volume through their dense networks of academic hospitals, trauma centers, and specialty imaging clinics, while San Diego's concentration of large hospital systems and research-linked medical centers sustains strong hiring for both general and subspecialty radiologists.

Are there remote radiologist jobs in California?

Yes, and more than most clinical fields, because a meaningful share of diagnostic radiology work involves reading imaging studies that can be transmitted digitally. About 24% of radiologist openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting the growth of teleradiology. Preliminary reads, overnight coverage, and subspecialty overread contracts are the functions most commonly structured as fully remote positions.

How can I get hired as a radiologist in California with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is securing a residency or fellowship slot at a California academic medical center, with UCLA Health, UCSF Health, and Cedars-Sinai running established programs for graduating physicians. New graduates who have completed residency but lack attending experience often enter through locum tenens contracts or junior staff positions at community hospitals and outpatient imaging centers. Completing California medical licensure early and maintaining board eligibility gives candidates a clear edge in a competitive applicant pool.

Where can I find and apply to radiologist jobs in California?

You can find and apply to radiologist jobs in California on Migrate Mate, which lists current California openings from hospitals, health systems, and imaging groups across the state. Find roles that match your subspecialty and experience level and apply directly.
