Dear Prospective Teammates,

I am honored to serve as the medical director for Sound’s anesthesia practice at John Peter Smith Hospital, located in the vibrant city of Fort Worth, Texas. I have been part of the team for the past three years and take great pride in the anesthesia program we have cultivated. As we open our doors to physicians who are emerging from their training or seeking a career change, I would like to extend a warm invitation to learn more about our people, practice, and unwavering purpose.

Our Team:

• We are a tightly-knit and well-established team that consists of 20 physicians and 57 certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs).
• Our team reflects a rich tapestry of clinicians hailing from diverse geographic, educational, and training backgrounds, each of whom relies on and learns from one another in our shared commitment to patient care.
• We foster close collaboration with our CRNA colleagues, ensuring we collectively provide the highest standard of anesthesia care for the Fort Worth community.
• Fort Worth offers the small-town charm within a larger city environment. We take pride in being distinctly Fort Worth, dissimilar from Dallas, boasting a laid-back, true-to-Texas small-city vibe. This is an excellent place to live and raise a family, with safe schools, welcoming neighborhoods, outstanding dining, and enriching cultural experiences.

Practice:

• Our hospital is a Level I trauma center that deals with high-risk obstetrics and cardiothoracic cases. We have 13 bustling operating rooms, handle interventional radiology cases with critically ill patients in the electrophysiology (EP) lab, and provide services in GI and obstetrics.
• Specialized chiefs oversee obstetrics, trauma, and cardiac care, ensuring that our patients receive the highest level of expertise.
• We operate within the EPIC system and have access to our internal informatics platform.
• Shift work with new 9 weeks of STO + $525k comp package coming Nov 2024. Physicians can now qualify for the PSLF program through Sound at JPS!
• Our benefits package includes medical, dental, vision, life, and AD&D insurance, long- and short-term disability coverage, a 401k plan with a matching component, paid medical malpractice insurance, tail coverage, and an annual CME allowance.
• Our team enjoys high retention rates and collaboratively ensures coverage for time off.

Purpose:

• We put patients first. Always.
• We strongly support personal and professional growth and development within our anesthesia practice, allowing you to explore new avenues locally and within the broader medical group.
• We take pride in our community-minded approach, encouraging team members to contribute to community health and wellness within and outside the hospital.

With over a century of history, John Peter Smith Hospital continues to innovate while serving the needs of patients in and around Fort Worth. As the only Level 1 Trauma Center certified in stroke, heart attack, sepsis, and delirium care, we care for more than a million patients each year.
