UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento is a quaternary care, Level I trauma center serving a diverse patient population with a broad range of clinical needs. The candidate will have dedicated clinic time to evaluate and manage ambulatory patients in an interventional radiology clinic. Faculty supervise residents, medical students, and a supportive team of physician assistants and nurse practitioners. Our residency program includes 10 integrated interventional radiology residents and 30 diagnostic radiology residents. Faculty participate in the management of the inpatient consult service and contribute to subspecialty multidisciplinary tumor boards and conferences.

Interventional procedures are performed in the hospital and at our outpatient 48X Complex, which opened in July 2025 and features state-of-the‑art angiography suites and dedicated ultrasound- and CT-guided procedure rooms. Hospital‑based interventional suites are being upgraded with new angiography equipment, and the CT procedure room is being converted to a hybrid angiography/CT suite.

UC Davis Medical Center's campus is expanding, with the new California Tower adding inpatient beds and increasing procedure volumes across the health system. Together with the division's growing community presence, this expansion is driving demand for interventional radiology services. We are expanding our interventional radiology faculty to meet this demand and advance our academic and educational mission, with a continued commitment to leadership in clinical care, education, and research.

The candidate may receive additional academic time if they hold extramural grant funding and/or administrative positions. The university offers opportunities to build the practice, develop novel techniques, establish collaborations, and pursue basic, translational, and clinical research.

In addition to base salary, we offer additional call pay based on call frequency, an annual bonus of up to $20,000, and professional development support, including an annual allotment for licenses and conferences of approximately $5,000. We also offer a one‑time relocation allotment of $20,000 upon hire, subject to eligibility criteria.

At the UC Davis Health Department of Radiology, our mission is to deliver high-quality patient care, conduct transformative research, and train the next generation of radiology leaders and innovators. As part of the Sacramento region’s only academic medical center, we serve a 33‑county area spanning 65,000 square miles. We provide advanced imaging, minimally invasive treatments and therapies, and expert care to patients of all ages across a wide range of specialties. Our faculty has a long track record of pioneering new imaging technologies, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies, reflecting our ongoing commitment to advancing medicine.

In 2025, Forbes named UC Davis Health to its “America’s Best Large Employers” list, ranking us No. 19 nationally among employers with at least 5,000 employees and as the top hospital or health system in California for the second consecutive year.
