Date: 2 weeks ago
City: Oakville, Ontario
Contract type: Full time
The Role
As an anaesthesiologist at Osler, you will provide services to a total of 25 ORs, 4 operative delivery suites, up to 8 endoscopy rooms, pre-assessment clinics, and the Acute Pain Service across three sites – Brampton Civic Hospital, Etobicoke General Hospital, and Peel Memorial Centre. Future growth plans include expanding services both in and out of the OR suites and advancing our role in chronic pain management. Successful candidates would participate in the full range of anaesthesiology services both in and out of the OR and participate in the obstetric and general call schedules. The Remuneration is fee-for-service as set by the OHIP Schedule of Benefits and Fees.
The Anaesthesia Department
The Osler Anaesthesia Department works together with a diverse array of surgical specialties including a busy obstetric practice counting over 7000 annual deliveries, the highest in Ontario. Our surgical services include major thoracic and vascular surgery, orthopaedics with a strong focus on ambulatory arthroplasties, general surgery, plastic surgery, gynaecology, urology, maxillofacial surgery/dentistry, and cardiac electrophysiology. We staff up to 8 endoscopy suites daily including advanced therapeutic endoscopy such as ERCP and endoscopic ultrasound. Our pediatric practice encompasses ENT, dentistry and endoscopy. We have a very robust expertise in regional anaesthesia among our staff, with good ultrasound and block room infrastructure. While existing proficiency in neuraxial, truncal, and extremity blocks is an asset, you will have ample opportunities to improve and expand your regional anaesthesia skills at Osler.
Our department is supported by a multidisciplinary team which includes dedicated and skilled Anaesthesia Assistants and Nurse Practitioners who work in the OR’s, block room, acute pain service, and pre-anaesthesia clinic. May of our Anaesthesiologists have extensive experience and interest in clinic teaching at all levels.
Academic, Teaching & Research Opportunities
As an affiliated academic community teaching site for the McMaster University Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine Family Medicine program, and a key clinical partner for the new School of Medicine at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU), the Anaesthesia department provides ample opportunities for members to participate in clinical education with medical students and residents. We are also involved in teaching airway skills to advanced care paramedics and respiratory therapists. Anaesthesiologists interested in research, innovation, medical ethics, and Quality Improvement and Patient Safety have access to multidisciplinary support systems in these areas.
