Rheumatologist Jobs in Florida: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a rheumatologist in Florida?
Becoming a rheumatologist in Florida requires completing medical school, a three-year internal medicine residency, and a two-to-three year rheumatology fellowship, followed by obtaining an active Florida medical license through the Florida Board of Medicine. Graduates must also pursue board certification in rheumatology through the American Board of Internal Medicine. Florida does not offer a separate rheumatology-specific state license, but the Florida Board of Medicine must verify all training and credentials before a physician can practice.
How much do rheumatologists make in Florida?
Rheumatologists in Florida earn a median of about $262,180 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $65,370 for the lowest 10% to over $439,940 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire rheumatologists in Florida?
Employers hiring rheumatologists in Florida right now include Nemours, Ascension, and Mayo Clinic, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Florida's large retiree population and growing number of multi-specialty group practices mean hiring is spread across academic medical centers, hospital outpatient departments, and independent rheumatology clinics throughout the state.
Which Florida cities have the most rheumatologist jobs?
Tampa, Jacksonville, and Miami have the most rheumatologist openings in Florida, driven by the concentration of large hospital systems, academic medical centers, and high-density retiree communities in those metros. Smaller markets like Jacksonville and Fort Lauderdale also generate steady openings because regional health systems there operate dedicated rheumatology departments serving surrounding suburban and rural catchment areas.
Are there remote rheumatologist jobs in Florida?
Yes, but they're rare. Rheumatology is a hands-on specialty that relies heavily on physical examination, joint injections, and in-person infusion oversight, which limits full remote work. About 0% of rheumatologist openings tied to Florida are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions typically involve telehealth follow-up visits or consultative roles rather than primary hands-on care.
How can I get hired as a rheumatologist in Florida with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying directly for attending roles at large Florida health systems that actively recruit graduating fellows, including Orlando Health, UF Health, and the University of Miami Health System, which regularly post new-grad and first-year attending positions. Candidates without independent experience often move from chief resident or hospitalist roles into rheumatology practices that offer structured onboarding. Completing your Florida Board of Medicine licensure before your fellowship ends and securing ABIM board candidacy gives your application a clear edge with Florida hiring committees.
Where can I find and apply to rheumatologist jobs in Florida?
You can find and apply to rheumatologist jobs in Florida on Migrate Mate, which lists current Florida openings from employers actively hiring. Search the listings, find roles that match your experience and preferred location, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
