Anaesthetics (anaesthesiology) in Australia or New
Zealand can be a very challenging and fascinating
experience. As with anaesthetics in other
westernised countries, anaesthetists cover theatre
anaesthesia, pain clinics and intensive care
units.
There has been a huge increase in the demand for
anaesthetists in the last five years in Australia
and New Zealand and this has been recognised by
both the Federal Government and the
Australian and New Zealand College of
Anaesthetists. This has resulted in an increase in
the number of trainees being accepted for
anaesthetic training but the number required still
falls short of the number of anaesthetists needed.
IMR has preferred supplier status with many
hospitals in both Australia and New Zealand and so
can offer anaesthetists the widest choice of
positions available. In addition, IMR
representatives have detailed knowledge about your
specialty and can offer advice on whether you
would like to practice in a hospital which offers
opportunities with or without:
- General Anaesthesia
- Paediatric Anaesthesia
- Obstetric Anaesthesia
- Cardiac Anaesthesia
- Neuro-Anaesthesia
- ICU cover
- Pain management clinics

"I have just completed a 12 months
term as Consultant Anaesthetist in North
Queensland and enjoyed it immensely. I have
learnt more about myself and my profession
in the last 12 months than in the previous
15 years."

"My wife and I have just completed a
12 month assignment in New Zealand. We
arrived from Miami, FL and have enjoyed
every minute of it - we have asked IMR to
extend our current assignment for a further
12 months and start looking for another
assignment after that!."
