The Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine and the Penn State Health Hershey Medical Center are seeking a BC/BE Interventional Radiologist to join our busy tertiary care academic practice in Hershey PA. They will join our growing team of 5 Interventional Radiologists and 6 Physician Assistants to provide interventional radiology services at the Hershey Medical Center.

Currently the Division of Interventional Radiology performs a full spectrum of standard and complex body interventional services which also provides an excellent training environment for our integrated and independent IR/DR residency program. In addition to venous access procedures, GI/GU interventions, and IVC Filter / PE interventions, the division has a strong interventional oncology program, offering chemoembolization, radioembolization and percutaneous tumor ablations. The division supports the liver transplant and surgical oncology services with a full spectrum of biliary and portal venous interventions to include TIPS, BRTO and mesenteric venous stenting. The division also supports our level one trauma center, stroke center and mechanical circulatory support program.

Working under the academic leadership of Interim Department Chair, Dr. Jonell Thomas and the Division Chief of IR, Dr. Frank Lynch, the right candidate will have an opportunity to explore a fully academic track or a hybrid academic and community pathway where teaching is required but dedicated research is secondary to the clinical mission.
