Description

Kalamazoo Anesthesiology (KA) is Southwest Michigan’s leading provider of anesthesiology services, an expert administrator of surgical services, and the region’s leading chronic pain management consultant. Founded by anesthesiologists almost 60 years ago, KA is a privately-held, physician-led partnership. At KA we operate on the care team model and value our relationships with our CRNA colleagues. We currently have 38 physician partners and 55 nurse anesthetists. Over half of our physicians are fellowship-trained. We offer the full suite of perioperative services to the greater Kalamazoo community, and KA is proud to be affiliated with several of southwest Michigan’s best healthcare systems (including both level 1 & level 2 trauma centers as well as regional hospitals and surgical centers). They trust us to ensure their surgical service lines are beyond exceptional and compare to the best found anywhere in the country. We are proud to be a part of a community where these healthcare institutions share a passion to serve the community with distinction.

KA has the support in place to nurture numerous subspecialties in both clinical and leadership roles, both within our organization and in a hospital department/medical director capacity. KA is a politically active practice. We value the relationships we have formed with our state legislature, and we are excited to continue to invest in our political future.

 We are looking for the right partner-track candidate for our team. If you have an entrepreneurial spirit, are not shy about innovating and initiating change, and are looking to improve from day one, we would like to speak with you. This group functions as a whole and not as a sum of its parts. We believe that anesthesiology is a team sport.

KA offers a full benefit package including competitive compensation, medical, dental, vision, life insurance, a best-in-class retirement package, education account, relocation assistance and more!

This position is a 1-year to partnership salaried position with call.
