Faculty Position — Vascular & Interventional Radiology
Salary: $471,000 – $565,000 (commensurate with academic rank and experience)
Status: Full Time, Academic Faculty
The Russell H. Morgan Department of Radiology and Radiological Sciences at Johns Hopkins is looking for the next member of one of the country's premier academic Vascular and Interventional Radiology (VIR) divisions — and we think you'll like where the job takes you, both in the IR suite and outside of it. We're seeking a full-time, board certified or board eligible interventional radiologist with VIR fellowship training and CAQ (or eligibility) who wants a genuinely academic career: real time for research, real time for teaching, and a practice built to support both.
A Division Built for Academic IR
You'll join 11 full-time interventional radiologists, supported by 10 physician assistants, 2 nurse practitioners, and a dedicated research coordinator. Our residency is one of the largest ACGME-accredited VIR programs in the country, with 20+ (currently 23) integrated and independent residents — meaning you'll always have outstanding trainees at your side in the suite, on service, and in the lab.
This position is based at the main campus of The Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, with rare coverage at a second, community hospital also in Baltimore. The broader division has a growing regional footprint, with additional sites in the Washington, D.C. suburbs, giving faculty exposure to a range of practice settings and referral bases.
6 single-plane angiography suites
A state-of-the-art hybrid angio-CT unit
Two dedicated VIR CT scanners
One interventional MRI (iMRI) suite
Admitting privileges, a dedicated consult service, APP-staffed bedside procedures, and daily clinic
Our research infrastructure includes dedicated animal interventional suites and housing, and active collaborations across Johns Hopkins Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, and the Bloomberg School of Public Health — a rare depth of resources for faculty building a clinician-scientist career.
Support That Lets You Focus on Patients
One thing that sets our practice apart: the division is supported by a team of 11 dedicated patient care coordinators who manage procedure and clinic scheduling, insurance pre-authorizations, and day-to-day patient communication. This is not the norm in most IR practices, academic or private — and it means faculty and trainees can spend their time on patient care and scholarship instead of administrative logistics.
More broadly, this is a genuinely collaborative and supportive group. Faculty cover for one another, share cases and problem-solve together, and are invested in each other's clinical and academic success — the kind of culture that makes a q12 call schedule and a full academic career sustainable.
A Schedule Designed for a Sustainable Career
Call is q12 — one of the most favorable rotations of any academic IR division in the country — giving faculty real, predictable time to invest in research, teaching, and life outside the hospital. Faculty who want to build additional clinical volume or supplement income also have access to internal moonlighting opportunities within the division, on their own terms.
Why Baltimore
Baltimore is one of the best-kept secrets on the East Coast for physicians — and we mean that as a genuine selling point, not a consolation prize. It's a genuinely livable, walkable, affordable city just north of Washington, D.C., with a fraction of the cost of living of the coastal academic hubs where comparable IR positions are based.
Housing that goes further: spacious rowhomes, waterfront condos, and single-family homes near the hospital cost a fraction of comparable homes in Boston, New York, San Francisco, or D.C. proper — many faculty own homes minutes from work.
A short commute: no bridge-and-tunnel, no two-hour drive — many faculty live 10–20 minutes from Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Easy access to Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and New York, plus BWI Marshall Airport for national and international travel.
A vibrant food and culture scene: the Inner Harbor, Fells Point, Federal Hill, and Hampden neighborhoods, a nationally regarded restaurant scene, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Walters Art Museum, and year-round waterfront life on the Chesapeake Bay.
Access to the Chesapeake Bay and Maryland's beaches, mountains, and wine country, all within a short drive.
In short: Baltimore lets you build the kind of career you came to academic medicine for, without the cost of living eating into the rewards of it.
