Shasta Anesthesia Consultants is recruiting for 1 Anesthesiologist. One of our docs is expanding his
pain practice and reducing his OR practice. We also expect a retirement in the next year or two.
The practice includes Obstetric, Cardiac, General, Trauma, Ophthalmologic, and Outpatient anesthesia.
Our primary hospital is Mercy Medical Center, Redding. We also work at Riverside Surg. Center
(eyes), Center for Sight (eyes), Redding Surgery Center (plastic/gen/gyn/ENT), and Mercy Surgery
Center (ENT, GU, Ortho, Gen). Every doc is required to do OB and Mercy Main OR. Only 5 docs really
want to do Cardiac. Physicians practice in the surgery centers based on their preferences. For
example: everyone likes Plastics but only half the docs work in the Opthalmology surgery centers.
Outpatient Anesthesia is approximately 30% of our daily assignments. Call is shared equally however
since it is a stipended position physicians have the option of serving a little more or a little less call.
Next day after call is guaranteed off. The main OR tends to be pretty busy. The Surgery centers tend to
end mid afternoon.
The practice is managed democratically with a productivity based, insurance blind compensation
system. New physicians are immediately treated as equals with regard to call schedule, income,
vacations etc. Physician take between 8-12 weeks vacation per year. The practice is structured as a
corporation. All physicians are employees of the corporation. New physicians Immediately become
shareholders in the corporation as well as employees. There is no "buy in". Shareholder status allows
one to vote on management issues. Retirements are individually managed and funded maximally as
allowed by law (~$45,000 per year). There is no vesting. The money immediately belongs to the
physician. Take a few moments to click on the links below for old but still relevant job seeking info.
