Pediatric Anesthesiology Faculty Positions at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston and Austin, Texas, U.S.A.
The Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston, Texas, U.S.A. has significant need for fellowship-trained faculty in Pediatric Anesthesiology. Texas Children’s Hospital is the largest pediatric healthcare system in the U.S., and is currently ranked #2 in the U.S. News and World Report Children’s Hospital Honor Roll for 2022-23. The Department faculty of 97 fellowship trained Pediatric Anesthesiologists performs over 55,000 anesthetics annually on 3 hospital campuses. All pediatric surgical subspecialties are represented, and all case complexities from simple outpatient surgeries to the most complex cardiac, neurosurgical, neonatal, airway, spine, oncologic, and others are performed in large numbers. Because of significant growth at our Main Campus in Houston, and opening of our new state of the art hospital in Austin, we are seeking qualified Australia/New Zealand Pediatric Anesthesia fellowship graduates. No U.S. training or board certification is required, and as full-time medical school faculty of Baylor College of Medicine, medical licensure is straightforward, and assistance with obtaining the proper visa is supported by the Department. Ample opportunities for academic development exist with our extensive educational, research, and leadership programs. A very competitive compensation and benefits package is offered. Texas has a growing pediatric population, and Texas Children’s Hospital’s excellent reputation has increased referrals from all over the state, U.S., and internationally, resulting in growing demand for our surgical and diagnostic services. Houston and Austin are vibrant, growing cities with outstanding quality of life. Busy international airports in both cities allow efficient flights to locations all over the world.
