Anesthesiologist Job at Tower Health in Philadelphia, PA

St. Christopher's Hospital for Children is seeking a Pediatric Cardiac Anesthesiologist to join our team.

We are in the process of building a comprehensive cardiac program that includes both cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology. Currently, the team comprises one cardiac surgeon, one interventional cardiologist, one electrophysiologist, and one cardiac anesthesiologist. As the program grows, we plan to expand the anesthesia team to two full-time anesthesiologists, with additional growth anticipated as we add more surgeons and interventional cardiologists.

At this stage, the second anesthesiologist will be involved in cardiac cases and general anesthesia cases alongside 11 other anesthesiologists. There will be no in-house overnight call; instead, calls will be taken from home and shared among the anesthesia group, including two part-time, as-needed cardiac anesthesiologists.

The Benefits We Offer:

• Competitive compensation package
• Comprehensive benefits including health, dental, vision, life and disability insurance
• Retirement savings plan with employer automatic contribution and employer match.
• Malpractice insurance & tail coverage
• Generous paid time-off allowance
• Commuter Benefits- tax-free transit or parking
• CME time and money
• Relocation assistance
• Immigration support
• Supportive health system to advance goals
