Date Posted:2026-02-19
Job Location:St. Louis, MO
Job Requirements:MD or DO from an accredited medical school, completion of an ACGME-accredited Anesthesiology residency and Pediatric Anesthesiology fellowship. 1–3 years post-fellowship experience preferred; recent graduates considered. Board certified or eligible in Anesthesiology with Pediatric Anesthesiology subspecialty. Eligibility for state medical licensure, DEA, and credentialing/privileging per hospital bylaws required.

Job Description:Shriners Children's St. Louis is seeking three full-time Pediatric Anesthesiologists to join our dedicated perioperative team, providing expert anesthesia care for children undergoing a wide range of surgical procedures, including general orthopedics, spine, upper and lower extremity, sports medicine, and select plastic surgeries. Successful candidates will be fellowship-trained in pediatric anesthesia. This role focuses primarily on mid-acuity and lower pediatric patients, including complex neuromuscular cases, with opportunities to utilize regional anesthesia, ultrasound-guided blocks, and advanced airway management techniques. Anesthesiologists will run two operating rooms daily in an all-MD model without CRNA supervision, covering 90% of their time in the OR with occasional PACU and preoperative assessments, and will participate in a rotating 1-in-4 home call schedule. The team works closely with pediatric orthopedic surgeons, PT/OT, recreational therapy staff, and APPs in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment, with no resident or fellow teaching responsibilities. Shriners Children's provides a supportive environment for focused pediatric anesthesia practice, managing complex cases without PICU responsibilities, and fostering professional growth within a cohesive, child-focused care team. This is a full-time, full-benefits eligible position, with compensation determined by a combination of years of post-fellowship experience and departmental equity.
