Job Description:
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. 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.

Psychiatry, Family Medicine, the Holden Comprehensive Cancer
Center, and the Stead Family Department of Pediatrics and

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. 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. We interpret all obstetric ultrasounds for our hospital
system, which includes: Two hospitals Five outpatient locations Two

have three full-time and two part-time genetic counselors, shared
