A Thoughtful Approach to Anesthesia Practice
You’ve developed a steady, thoughtful rhythm in your work — one built on skill, sound judgment, and reliability. You may not be actively seeking change, but it’s worth knowing that opportunities exist where your experience is respected, your time is valued, and your practice can reflect your priorities.
At Rochester Regional Health, anesthesiologists are part of a long-standing, physician-led team that values flexibility, collaboration, and clinical autonomy. With five hospitals and three surgical centers in close proximity, we’ve designed a model that supports professional satisfaction without overreach or unnecessary complexity.
