Clinical Physicist Opportunity - Orlando Health Cancer Institute

Orlando Health Cancer Institute is seeking a dedicated clinical physicist to join our dynamic team-where on-site clinical coverage and patient-centered care are core values.

Team Culture & Growth

We value a team-first attitude, collaboration, and enthusiasm for clinical medical physics. Physicists are expected to participate in our CAMPEP-accredited residency program and may engage in clinical research (optional). Our current team includes:

• 10 photon-clinic physicists
• 2 proton-clinic physicists
• 2 therapy physics residents
• 2 medical physics assistants
• 3 IT/CE liaisons
• 1 medical physics research fellow

We work closely with 15 highly engaged Radiation Oncologists and 12 certified Medical Dosimetrists, all of whom rely heavily on physicist involvement. Our department is experiencing significant growth, with multiple expansion opportunities across Central Florida and into Alabama.

Senior-level physicist compensation includes annual merit increases and a leader-incentive bonus ranging from 8-12%.
