Your clinical practice at the Children’s Hospital of Georgia will immerse you in the full spectrum of pediatric anesthesia, with a strong emphasis on congenital cardiac care. You will manage both routine and complex cases, balancing high-acuity cardiac surgeries with general pediatric procedures in a dynamic and supportive environment.
On any given week, you may provide anesthesia for a neonatal heart repair in the morning and then oversee general pediatric OR or non-operating room anesthesia in the afternoon. The current case mix is approximately 30% pediatric cardiac and 70% general pediatric anesthesia, but with anticipated surgical growth, you can expect to see the cardiac side expand toward a 50/50 balance or more.
Your role will extend beyond the OR, collaborating closely with pediatric cardiologists, surgeons, and intensivists in perioperative planning and post-op ICU care. You’ll also mentor residents and fellows, helping to shape the next generation of anesthesiologists in a collegial academic setting.
