Physician - Emergency Department

Job Requirements

Find Your Team. Build Your Career. Love Where You Practice.

Emergency Medicine is about more than the next patient - it's about the people beside you every shift.

At the University of Maryland Baltimore Washington Medical Center (UM BWMC) , we're looking for a full-time (0.9 FTE) Emergency Medicine Physician who wants to practice in a high-acuity, physician-led environment where collaboration is second nature and careers are built for the long term.

Over the past year, our Emergency Department transitioned to a hospital-employed model - but one thing never changed: our culture. Our physician leadership remained intact, and our leaders continue to work side-by-side with the physicians they support, fostering a collaborative environment where everyone's voice matters. Our physicians continue to shape scheduling and departmental operations, and many have built their careers here because they value the culture we've created.

If you're looking for a place where your voice matters and your colleagues genuinely enjoy working together, you'll fit right in.
