Anesthesiologist - RUHS

Join Our Team as an Anesthesiologist

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

About Riverside University Health System-Medical Center

RUHS-MC is a university-affiliated teaching hospital with 439 beds and operates 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, scenic mountains, 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.

Practice Overview

The practice primarily focuses on adult cases, encompassing a variety of specialties such as orthopedics, general surgery, neurosurgery, ENT, OB/GYN, vascular, and thoracic procedures, along with trauma surgeries. While we do provide care for pediatric patients, 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 applicants, though it is advantageous. The practice also includes a modern outpatient surgery center featuring eight operating rooms. Please note that cardiac surgery and transplantation procedures are not performed at RUHS-MC.

Call Responsibilities

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.

Ideal Candidate Profile

The perfect candidate will be a team-oriented physician who values personal and professional development, is passionate about resident education, and enjoys mentoring residents and medical students. Our practice emphasizes perioperative medicine as a fundamental aspect of anesthesiology; therefore, our residents receive extensive training in this area, and several faculty members participate in national and state committees discussing future practice models. We seek a candidate who will actively support these initiatives.
