To our prospective teammates,

I am the chief of anesthesia at St. Alphonsus Medical Center in Nampa, Idaho. St. Alphonsus Medical Center in Nampa, Idaho, partners with Sound’s anesthesiology team to deliver unmatched care to our patients. With our agreement, the clinical team is employed by the hospital, but enjoys the benefits of Sound’s practice model and sustainable career paths.

Sound manages the patient volume and provides you with the time required to bring better care to the bedside. Our approach ensures that every member of the anesthesia team practices at the top of their license and that physicians and CRNAs collaborate to deliver exceptional patient experiences.
