Job Description
Are you a clinician who genuinely aims to make a difference by providing top-tier, quality care? TeamHealth needs someone like you. We are seeking a skilled cardiac anesthesiologist to join our thriving practice at Christian Hospital. If you are looking for a collaborative, compassionate group of professionals and an environment optimal for your professional growth, you've found your match.
Why This Role Stands Out
- The Perfect Clinical Balance: Manage an average of 40 cardiac cases per month, shared between just 3 dedicated cardiac physicians. This allows you to deeply focus on your cardiothoracic passion while easily maintaining your general anesthesia skills.
- A Culture of Collaboration: Work alongside a truly collegial, supportive team of clinicians who value your expertise and input
- Collaborative anesthesiology care team model (1:3)
- A Legacy of Excellence: Christian Hospital has proudly served the Greater St.
Louis area and Southern Illinois since 1903, combining world-class medical care with a deep root in community service
What We Are Looking For
- A board-certified or board-eligible cardiac anesthesiologist
- A compassionate professional dedicated to elevating patient care
- Cardiac fellowship training and TEE certification preferred
- New graduates are highly encouraged to apply! We provide an exceptional environment to transition into your post-residency/fellowship career.
Ready to elevate your career? Join a team dedicated to making a positive, lasting impact on patients' lives every single day.
