Chief of Pediatric Urology

/A System Built for the Future of Pediatric Urology

Across the United States, the future of pediatric urologic care will be defined by physicians who combine clinical excellence with a commitment to expanding access, advancing outcomes, and working collaboratively across disciplines. WVU Medicine is uniquely positioned to lead that future, and we invite you to join us as a member of our faculty within our academic health system.

This opportunity offers the ability to practice within a nationally recognized urology program, joining a team of highly skilled pediatric urologists supported by a deeply integrated, multidisciplinary care model. You will collaborate closely with pediatric surgery, nephrology, oncology, and women’s and children’s services, ensuring comprehensive, coordinated care for even the most complex pediatric conditions.

At WVU Medicine, this is more than a clinical role. It is an opportunity to contribute to a growing program with strong institutional support, expanding clinical reach, and a clear vision for the future of pediatric subspecialty care.

 

As the state’s largest health system and the academic medical enterprise of West Virginia University, WVU Medicine has built a platform designed not only to deliver exceptional care today, but to transform how pediatric subspecialty care is delivered across an entire region.

 

Qualifications

• MD or DO degree (or foreign equivalent) with eligibility for an unrestricted state medical license
• Completion of an ACGME-accredited Urology residency and fellowship training in Pediatric Urology; must be board-certified or board-eligible
• All clinical and credentialing requirements met prior to appointment
• Demonstrated commitment to delivering exceptional, compassionate, and family-centered pediatric care
• Commitment to academic advancement, education, and/or research, consistent with WVU Medicine’s academic mission

 

/Meet the Chair

Over the past year, Steven Campbell, MD, PhD, has brought transformational leadership to WVU Medicine’s Department of Urology. Since joining the institution, he has significantly strengthened and expanded subspecialty divisions, while more than doubling the Advanced Practice Provider (APP) workforce — enhancing access, supporting physician teams, and advancing the system’s ability to deliver high-quality, specialized urologic care across the region.

 

Prior to WVU Medicine, Dr. Campbell built a distinguished career at the Cleveland Clinic, where he served as a board-certified urologist, vice chair of Urology, Residency Program director, and professor of Surgery. Over a 20-year tenure, he led the largest urology residency training program in the United States and played a central role in the Urologic Oncology Fellowship Program.

 

Dr. Campbell’s clinical and academic interests focus on renal cell carcinoma, bladder cancer, prostate cancer, and surgical education. He is a nationally recognized expert in the field, having authored more than 400 peer-reviewed publications and serving as lead author of the American Urological Association Guidelines for the Management of Kidney Cancer. During his time at Cleveland Clinic, he also contributed to the renal cell carcinoma medical genetics program, treating thousands of patients with complex genitourinary malignancies.

 

Earlier in his career, Dr. Campbell held leadership roles across several leading institutions, including co-director of Urologic Oncology at Loyola University Medical Center, chief of Urology at the Hines Veterans Affairs Hospital in Maywood, Illinois, and co-director of the Division of Urological Oncology at Northwestern University.

 

He completed his urology residency at Cleveland Clinic, followed by a fellowship in Urologic Oncology at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Dr. Campbell earned his MD/PhD in biochemistry and molecular biology and undergraduate degree from the University of Chicago.

/Living and Thriving Across the WVU Medicine Footprint: Where Purpose, Practice, and Lifestyle Converge

A career with WVU Medicine, the state’s largest health system and largest private employer, offers more than a professional opportunity. It provides a platform to practice at scale while living in a region defined by access, affordability, and quality of life.

 

WVU Medicine continues to expand its clinical reach and subspecialty depth across key service lines including urology, cancer, heart and vascular, neuroscience, and women’s health. The system is home to West Virginia’s only multi-organ transplant center and a state-of-the-art, 150-bed Children’s Hospital — reflecting a sustained commitment to advancing complex, high-acuity care close to home.

 

Today, WVU Medicine encompasses more than 3,400 licensed beds, 4,600 providers, and nearly 35,000 employees across a growing network of hospitals and care sites spanning West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, and Virginia. Anchored by an 880-bed academic medical center in Morgantown, the system is uniquely positioned to deliver both academic innovation and community-based care at scale.

 

At J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital, the system’s flagship academic campus, physicians benefit from a robust clinical infrastructure designed to support advanced surgical care and multidisciplinary collaboration. This includes more than 40 operating rooms, a comprehensive robotic surgery program (8 Xi, 1 SP, and 1 DV5 platforms), extensive ancillary services, and direct integration with the WVU Cancer Institute.

 

Beyond the clinical environment, the WVU Medicine footprint offers a lifestyle that is increasingly rare in modern medicine: the ability to practice at a high level while enjoying a meaningful quality of life. Morgantown and the surrounding region provide access to top-ranked schools, vibrant university culture, and a growing food and arts scene, all set against the natural backdrop of the Appalachian Mountains.

 

Across the broader region, physicians and their families experience a diverse range of communities — from energetic college towns to quiet, scenic landscapes — offering flexibility in how and where you choose to live. Outdoor recreation is woven into everyday life, with opportunities for hiking, boating, skiing, and exploration just minutes from home.

 

At WVU Medicine, the value proposition extends beyond compensation. It is about practicing within a system that is investing in its future, while enabling you to build a life that is equally fulfilling outside of medicine.

 

Here, your impact reaches further. And your life feels fuller.
