To our prospective teammates,

I’m the chief executive officer of Sound’s anesthesia service line. I’ve been a part of Sound for over a year. I’m proud of the anesthesia practice we have built and welcome interest from physician leaders who are change agents looking to make a difference using their skills in the communities and programs we serve. I want to share more about it, specifically about our people, practice, and purpose, as you consider options:
