Job Description

Full/Part Time Status:

Negotiable

Position Description:

University of Iowa Stead Family Department of Pediatrics seeks an Allergist/Immunologist. Appointment rank is open and may be to either the tenure track or clinical (non-tenure) track consistent with clinical experience and research interest. Appointment rank to Instructor of Pediatrics (non-tenure or clinical track) may also be considered. The individual selected will join the Division of Pediatrics and Rheumatology, Allergy, and Immunology to provide patient care, teaching, and consultative services as an Allergist/Immunologist. 

University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital is home to Iowa’s only pediatric rheumatologists—doctors with the training, expertise, and experience to treat children and young adults with rheumatic diseases. Rheumatic diseases refer to a wide range of disorders that, in general, affect the joints, muscles, spine, and skin. These diseases may present with pain, swelling, morning stiffness, fever, or rash.  Pediatric rheumatic diseases result from uncontrolled inflammation during which the body’s immune system attacks or hurts its own healthy cells and tissues.

The University of Iowa Roy J. and Lucille A. Carver College of Medicine is one of the nation’s top medical schools. It is ranked 44th in research by U.S. News & World Report. Stead Family Department of Pediatrics is ranked No. 27 in NIH funding among public pediatric departments nationwide by the Blue Ridge Institute for Medical Research.   

The pediatrics department comprises the medical staff of University of Iowa Health Care Stead Family Children’s Hospital, Iowa’s only nationally ranked children’s hospital and home to the state’s only Level 4 NICU and Level 1 Regional Resource Pediatric Trauma Center. The ACGME-accredited pediatric residency program at Stead Family Children’s Hospital trains 50 pediatric resident physicians.   

For its 2025-26 edition of “Best Children’s Hospitals,” U.S. News & World Report ranked Stead Family Children's Hospital in six pediatric specialties: Neonatology, Pediatric and Adolescent Behavioral Health, Pediatric Cancer, Pediatric Diabetes and Endocrinology, Pediatric Nephrology, and Pediatric Urology.

We are home to the Hawkeye Wave, voted the best college sports tradition by USA Today readers, where 70,000 football fans wave to our patients and providers every game day. You will never feel as much community support as you do at Iowa. Come wave with us!
