Job Description

Join Our Team as an Anesthesiologist

Our organization is seeking collaborative Anesthesiologists to become part of the Division of Community Partnership in Anesthesiology at Riverside University Health System-Medical Center (RUHS-MC).

RUHS-MC is a 439-bed teaching hospital affiliated with a university, featuring over 60 primary and specialty care clinics located in Moreno Valley, Southern California. This prime location offers easy access to Los Angeles, Palm Springs, beautiful beaches, mountains, deserts, and six major airports. RUHS-MC is recognized as an ACS-accredited Level 1 Adult Trauma Center, a Top Performer on Key Quality Measures by The Joint Commission, a Primary Stroke Center, and a Center of Excellence for Research.

The practice primarily focuses on adult cases, including orthopedics, general surgery, neurosurgery, ENT, OB/GYN, vascular, and thoracic procedures, along with trauma surgeries. While pediatric care is provided, the volume is manageable. RUHS serves as a Level 1 adult and Level II pediatric trauma center for Riverside County. Regular regional anesthesia procedures are conducted; however, expertise in these techniques is not mandatory for employment, though it is advantageous. The practice also includes a modern outpatient surgery center equipped with 8 operating rooms. Please note that cardiac surgery and transplantation procedures are not performed at RUHS-MC.

The selected candidate will be responsible for three 16-hour in-house overnight calls during weekdays and one 24-hour in-house shift on weekends or holidays each month (which can be divided into two 12-hour shifts with another physician). There will always be two attending physicians available for overnight calls, and responsibilities are shared equally among faculty members.

The perfect candidate will be a team-oriented physician eager for personal and professional development, as well as passionate about resident education and mentoring medical students. Our practice values perioperative medicine as a fundamental aspect of anesthesiology; thus, residents receive extensive training in this area, and several faculty members participate in national and state committees discussing future practice models. The ideal applicant will actively support these initiatives.

This role is part of the Loma Linda University Faculty Medical Group (LLUFMG), within the Department of Anesthesiology, in collaboration with Riverside University Health System.

The starting base salary for this position ranges from $440,000 to $481,800, based on a 1.0 FTE, and is adjusted according to years of experience and faculty rank. This base salary does not encompass variable compensation or additional clinical productivity, which can be substantial and is subject to departmental compensation plans. Employment benefits are provided in addition to the salary, with more detailed compensation discussions occurring during the recruitment process.

• Generous Retirement Contribution
• Comprehensive Medical and Dental Coverage
