Job Description

Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, one of the nation’s premier academic healthcare institutions, is seeking a full-time faculty physician to join the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology as the leader of the Division of Gynecologic Oncology at the Associate or Professor level. Cedars-Sinai gynecology was recently ranked number 7 in the US and number 1 in Los Angeles in 2023 by US News and World Report.  The OB/GYN Department has 27 faculty members and over 120 private attendings across all Gynecological and Obstetrical specialties. The department has an independent residency program with 7 residents per year, as well as fellowship programs in MFM, REI, MIGS and GYN Oncology. Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is one of the busiest hospitals in California with over 6000 deliveries and over 2500 gynecologic surgical cases per year. The majority of procedures involve resident care which creates a high expectation for excellence in teaching. The Division of Gynecologic Oncology has six board certified gynecologic oncologists as well as research scientists in the women’s cancer program. The new faculty leader will guide collaboration among faculty and private physicians to uphold the highest standards of excellence and drive the program’s vision of advancing cancer care for women.

The Gynecologic Oncology Division has a long track record of excellence in patient care, research, and resident/fellow education and provides an excellent environment for professional mentorship.  The practice is active both clinically and academically, with a very busy surgical schedule, sizeable clinical trials portfolio as well as cutting edge translational research.  Outpatients are seen in the Samuel Oschin Comprehensive Cancer Institute and faculty work with a multidisciplinary team including medical, surgical and radiation oncologists, genetic counselors, and palliative care services.  Educational conferences include tumor boards, grand rounds, morbidity and mortality conferences, journal clubs and other didactic opportunities. 

Cedars-Sinai is a premier academic nonprofit health system in the heart of the vibrantly diverse city of Los Angeles, with a rapidly expanding global presence. From gender-affirming care for the L.A. community to stem cell cultivation in space, our work is boundless. Surround yourself with experts who affirm your passions and get the time and resources to pursue them. We provide care to patients in the broader L.A. area – over 15,000 people across 250 locations, caring for over one million lives each year.
