AMN Healthcare is partnering with Rutgers New Jersey Medical School (NJMS) to recruit a Cardiac/Liver Transplant Anesthesiologist for a full-time, non-tenure track faculty position in the Department of Anesthesiology & Perioperative Care. Join a collegial team serving University Hospital (UH), New Jersey’s Level I Trauma Center, where clinical excellence, education, and access for a diverse community guide the work. You will provide high acuity cardiac anesthesia, participate in the state’s first liver transplant program, and teach residents one-on-one. Competitive, rank-based compensation, substantial annual variable pay, structured call, academic time, and strong state benefits support long-term professional growth.

Predictable schedule + premiums: Home beeper call (~13 weeks/year), overtime at $300/hour, optional late call premiums, and structured call tiers.
Focused case mix: ~25 cardiac and ~45 liver transplant cases per year; faculty never cover both services simultaneously.
Growing service: Join an expanding four-faculty cardiac/liver anesthesia service aligned with UH’s transplant and surgical programs.
Extra earning potential: Optional Stone Center shifts with hourly premiums; personally administered anesthesia with no residents or certified registered nurse anesthetists.
