The Department of Surgery of Emory University School of Medicine at Grady Memorial Hospital, Atlanta, Georgia, is actively seeking a fellowship-trained board-eligible critical care physician with core training in either anesthesia, emergency medicine, pulmonary medicine, or surgery at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor academic ranks.  This will be a full-time position with the Grady Health System Acute Care Surgery Service and an academic Emory School of Medicine appointment.  If the candidate is not trained in surgery, the candidate should have experience in surgical intensive care and an interest in providing care in a surgical intensive care unit.  The position is 100% surgical critical care (inclusive of trauma, surgical disciplines, and cardiovascular patients).
