  • Physician
  • Pediatric Ophthalmology
  • 170000 - 200000

Position Highlights:

Pediatric Ophthalmologist | Academic Medicine | Baltimore

Join one of the top academic pediatric ophthalmology programs in the country, where your research gets funded, your surgical cases get complex, and your reputation opens doors for the rest of your career.

Why This Role Stands Out

A nationally recognized academic ophthalmology division with an international reputation for clinical excellence, education, and research is seeking a fellowship-trained Pediatric Ophthalmologist. You'll join a team of 8 faculty, plus fellows and residents. Patient demand is high and growing. You'll walk into a full schedule, not build one from scratch.

  • 3 clinic days, 1 OR day, 1 protected academic day
  • Complex tertiary/quaternary referral base: strabismus, pediatric cataract, pediatric glaucoma, ROP
  • Room to shape your practice around your interests: heavier clinical, heavier research, or a mix
  • Additional ROP coverage opportunities at affiliated hospitals

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive academic base salary with annual merit increases
  • Guaranteed bonus, years 1 and 2
  • Productivity bonuses on top of base
  • Sign-on bonus and relocation assistance available
  • Up to $100,000 in student loan repayment
  • Full academic benefits: retirement contribution, health/dental/vision, CME allowance, tuition assistance

What We're Looking For

  • MD/DO, completed Ophthalmology residency
  • Pediatric Ophthalmology fellowship
  • Eligible for Maryland licensure
  • Genuine interest in academic medicine and teaching
  • Open to experienced physicians and current fellows

Why Baltimore

Waterfront city, major league sports, a food scene that punches above its weight. Two hours to DC, three to Philly or NYC. Top public and private schools. Chesapeake Bay and Atlantic beaches within reach. BWI makes travel easy in every direction.
