Northwell Health Anesthesiology, PC, a subsidiary of Northwell Health, is a new and growing anesthesia group that serves our eight county region. The PC is expanding both its ambulatory surgery centers, as well as our inpatient services. Northwell Health Anesthesiology, PC is seeking BC/BE anesthesiologists for full time and per diem opportunities to join selected ambulatory surgery centers, as well as inpatient settings, on Long Island.

We are looking for general anesthesiologists, as well as anesthesiologists with experience in the areas of cardiothoracic services, and pediatrics. The team of skilled anesthesia professionals consists of physicians, nurses and technicians who provide services in both the inpatient and ambulatory surgery.

One of the nation’s largest health care systems, Northwell Health delivers world-class clinical care throughout the New York metropolitan area, pioneering research at The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research and a visionary approach to medical education highlighted by the Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine.

We offer a competitive salary and benefits package. In addition, an academic appointment with the Hofstra Northwell School of Medicine is commensurate with credentials and experience. Physicians will be employed as members of Northwell Physician Partners, the seventh largest medical group in the country.

You will have immediate access to a team of highly experienced real estate professionals in every community surrounding the Health System. To help orient candidates we provide neighborhood tours and community profiles, including school, transportation and housing information.

No. NAPA still provides AMC services at Northwell's main site (Northshore LIJ in Long Island)...and likely will for a while longer due to the nature of their contract. My understanding is that Northwell is forming their own "anesthesia AMC" or employing their anesthesiologists at all future hospital and ASC acquisitions. The relationship between NAPA and Northwell is...complicated. A lot of animosity has developed as they have become competitors for providing anesthesia services at various facilities. NAPA has been focusing beyond the New York market and has been acquiring practices in New England, Pennsylvania, and further down the Atlantic coast. Northwell doesn't have a reputation for being physician friendly, either. In the next 5-10 years there will only be a handful of employers for all physician specialties in the New York area, which will continue to drive down salaries.

Go west, young man...
