Role and Facility Information

We are seeking two full time General Anesthesiologists to join our team at Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre. These vacancies have arisen due to planned increases in elective surgical volumes and staffing changes.

ARHCC opened in 2008 and is a regional referral centre and level II trauma centre. Our group includes 15 (FTE) Anesthesiologists. We cover most surgeries that you would expect of a Regional Hospital: General Surgery, a busy Obstetrics service (about 2700 births per year), Gynecology, Orthopedics, Plastic Surgery, ENT, Vascular and Dental. We do not perform Cardiac, Thoracic or Neurosurgery. Anesthesiologists are expected to anesthetise pediatric patients aged 4y and over for elective slates, occasional 2-4yr olds for occasional emergencies and rarely, airway assistance with neonatal intubations.

We run 7-8 OR's for urgent and elective surgery on weekdays; 5 ORs until 1500 hrs, 1 OR until 17...
