Job description

About the facility
A community-focused hospital in upstate New York is seeking a locum Anesthesiologist to join their OR team. This facility operates 6 anesthesia rooms, has a 2:1 CRNA ratio, and uses Cerner and iPro for documentation. You’ll work 8-hour day shifts with rotating pager call on weeknights and weekends — but call volume is manageable and overtime is available but not expected.

This facility is known for its collaborative OR culture, efficient workflow, and balanced case mix. Anesthesiologists here will both supervise CRNAs and perform their own cases, making this a great fit for physicians who enjoy staying hands-on while still leading a strong team.

About the facility location
Located in the scenic Hudson Valley region, this town offers the perfect mix of small-town charm and cultural richness. With rolling hills, historic architecture, farm-to-table dining, and easy access to New York City, the location is ideal for locums who want to work hard, recharge in nature, and experience true New York without the metro grind.

About the clinician’s workday
You’ll be engaged in a variety of cases, including:
• General surgery
• Orthopedics
• OB

There are 6 ORs, and your time will be split between direct case work and CRNA supervision. The CRNA-to-MD ratio is 2:1, ensuring coverage is manageable and well-structured.

Additional job details
• EMR: Cerner & iPro
• Shift: 8-hour days
• Call: Weeknight & weekend pager (volume manageable)
• CRNA Supervision: Yes (2:1 ratio)
• Hands-on cases: Yes
• Case types: General, Ortho, OB
• Location type: On-Site
• Prescriptive authority required: Yes

Requirements
• Board Certified in Anesthesiology
• Active NY license (or willing to obtain)
• Comfortable with both supervision and own cases
• Willing to take rotating pager call

This assignment is perfect for anesthesiologists who want to stay sharp across a variety of cases, enjoy a tight-knit hospital culture, and prefer clean, well-run ORs with low drama.
