 Come join our team in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains!  We are rapidly expanding our services on our main UVA Health campus, a community surgery center, and the Orthopedic Surgery Center at Ivy Road.  The Department of Anesthesiology at the University Of Virginia School Of Medicine seeks multiple American Board of Anesthesiology certified or Board-eligible candidates.  Qualified candidates can consider opportunities to join our academic faculty or our Community Practice Division. Duties include clinical care; medical supervision of residents and Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists (CRNA); teaching fellows, residents, and medical students; and research (if interested).  The department offers competitive compensation, excellent benefits, and a generous retirement plan.  Administrative time is available for academic, research, and/or administrative projects.   

Pediatric Anesthesiology:  We are seeking multiple talented pediatric anesthesiologists and pediatric cardiac anesthesiologists to join our team. The position will focus on the delivery of efficient and innovative pediatric anesthesia and acute pain management to ensure consistently high quality patient care in multiple settings (ambulatory, inpatient, off-floor, etc.).  This position will occasionally do adult care as needed and will have collaborations among divisional faculty and other clinical and/or basic research scientists across campus.  A major role besides excellent patient care will be educating medical students, residents, and/or fellows in anesthesiology and acute pain medicine in the context of perioperative care.

 Adult Multi-Specialty (AMS):  These Faculty members provide anesthesia for more than 55,000 cases per year including:  orthopedic surgery, endoscopy, vascular, neurosurgery, ophthalmology, ENT, gynecology, plastics, urology, transplantation, oncology, and general surgery.  Anesthetic care is provided in 29 modern surgical suites in the Main OR and 12 in the Outpatient Surgery Center, 4 endoscopy suites, and other off-sites throughout UVA Health. 

 Regional Anesthesia:  Currently recruiting fellowship trained regional anesthesiologists for a very busy regional service.  Typically providing 7000 blocks annually across various specialty services.  Ivy Mountain Orthopedic Hospital (1 mile from the main hospital) opened in spring of 2022 and we need regionalists.  Years of experience may qualify for fellowship training at the discussion of the chair and division chief.  Proficient ultrasound is a must.

 Community Practice:   With the recent acquisition of the Monticello Surgery Center on 29N in Charlottesville, we are hiring for this new MD ONLY site division.  Faculty must have completed an ACGME residency program in good standing and have a breadth of various experience.
