Obstetrics and Gynecology Physician Salary in Massachusetts (2026)
A Obstetrics and Gynecology physician practicing in Massachusetts can expect a base salary inside the national Obstetrics and Gynecology band of $305K to $440K, with the median tracking close to $345K. The Massachusetts variation on that number is driven mostly by anchor-employer comp structure in Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Cambridge, Lowell and by shortage-area incentive stacking outside those metros — not by Massachusetts cost-of-living alone.

Where Obstetrics and Gynecology offers land highest in Massachusetts
Massachusetts is dominated by Mass General Brigham, Beth Israel Lahey Health, Boston Children's, UMass Memorial, Tufts Medicine, and Steward Health Care. For Obstetrics and Gynecology, the highest-comp Massachusetts opportunities I see are typically not in the urban core of Boston — they sit in rural and HPSA-designated counties where the same Obstetrics and Gynecology role carries a 10-25% base premium plus signing bonuses of $30K-$100K and loan repayment of $50K-$200K layered on top of base. That stacking can push an Massachusetts Obstetrics and Gynecology offer comfortably above the $440K national ceiling in year-one total cash.
Massachusetts incentive programs that boost Obstetrics and Gynecology take-home
The Massachusetts Loan Repayment Program for Health Professionals supports primary care, behavioral health, and dental providers in HPSA sites. The Massachusetts Conrad State 30 J-1 waiver program is competitive and consistently filled. NHSC loan repayment is widely used across the state's FQHC network, particularly in Lawrence, Lowell, Springfield, and the Cape and Islands. For Obstetrics and Gynecology specifically, these federal and state programs frequently add the equivalent of $30K-$60K per year of pre-tax value over the first three years of service.
How I benchmark a Obstetrics and Gynecology offer in Massachusetts
When a Obstetrics and Gynecology candidate sends me an Massachusetts offer, I check three things in order: (1) where the base lands inside the $305K–$440K band relative to MGMA regional percentiles, (2) the wRVU conversion factor and ramp/threshold structure, and (3) the call burden and stipend. Massachusetts's licensing pace also matters for ramp timing: The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine licenses with a typical timeline of 90-150 days for US-trained physicians, which is longer than most other New England states.
