Maternal - Fetal Medicine Physician

The University of Iowa, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, is seeking faculty for a position in the Maternal-Fetal Medicine Division. Appointment rank may be at the Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor level and to either the tenure track, research track or clinical (non-tenure) track consistent with clinical experience and research interest.

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology

Our department's strength lies in its interdisciplinary team, which includes physicians, nurse midwives, advanced practice nurses, physician associates, genetic counselors, sonographers, and embryologists. We collaborate closely with the School of Nursing and the Departments of Family Medicine and Pediatrics. We are committed to excellence in education through a competency-based curriculum, mentoring clinical and research efforts, and supporting four ACGME-accredited fellowship programs and a Clinical Nurse Midwife training program. Additionally, we work with the UI Departments of Urology, Psychiatry, Family Medicine, the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the Stead Family Department of Pediatrics and Children's Hospital. We are the only academic health system in Iowa and are looked to as the leaders in healthcare for all Iowans.

Arguably the most distinguished member of the department, Denise Jamieson, MD, MPH serves as the vice president for medical affairs and dean of the UI Carver College of Medicine at the University of Iowa. She brings a wealth of expertise in obstetrics and gynecology (OBGYN) and advocacy for our department. Her background ensures a strong focus on women s health, maternal care, and emerging infectious diseases in pregnancy, which are critical areas in medical education and research. Her leadership is particularly beneficial in addressing health disparities and improving maternal health outcomes.

Division of Maternal Fetal Medicine

Our faculty practice encompasses both inpatient and outpatient activities, highlighting our role as Iowa s only quaternary academic referral center. Inpatient responsibilities include overseeing the antepartum service and managing obstetric deliveries for MFM patients. In our outpatient clinics, we provide comprehensive care for a wide range of maternal and fetal complications of pregnancy, offering both consultative and complete OB care.

Our ultrasound unit is accredited by the American Institute for Ultrasound in Medicine. Additionally, we have three full-time and two part-time genetic counselors, shared with the Division of Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility.
