Position Description

Due to service expansion, the University of Washington Department of Anesthesiology & Pain Medicine has academic critical care anesthesiologist positions available at the rank of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor or Professor. This position is without tenure due to funding and is full-time or part-time with an anticipated start date as early as September 2024 or thereafter. The successful candidate will have significant clinical effort in the Cardiothoracic ICU (CTICU) caring for patients recovering from cardiac, thoracic and major vascular procedures. In addition to clinical duties directing the multidisciplinary Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit team, candidates with training in cardiothoracic anesthesiology will join the Cardiothoracic Anesthesiology team. Those with general critical care credentials will have the opportunity to provide multispecialty anesthesia services at the UW Medical Center Montlake Campus or as a member of the anesthesiology team at Harborview Medical Center. University of Washington faculty engage in teaching residents, fellows and medical students as well as participating in research/scholarship and service. Contributions in these areas are expected. Ample opportunities are available for creation of innovative educational pathways for learners at all levels as well as academic pursuits in quality, safety and research. The University of Washington Heart Institute performs over 75 cardiac transplants and over 60 lung transplants per year. The ECMO program managed over 80 individual patients in the last year. The service is expected to expand with opportunities for management of all aspects of mechanical support including plans for an ECMO retrieval service. Positive factors for consideration include, but are not limited to, fellowship training in adult cardiothoracic anesthesiology.
