Houston Methodist Specialty Physician Group is seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated intensivist who is American Board of Internal Medicine certified or board eligible in Critical Care Medicine.

The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at Houston Methodist Willowbrook Hospital is a high-acuity multidisciplinary unit providing comprehensive care for critically ill medical and surgical patients. Located in northwest Houston, Houston Methodist Willowbrook Hospital is a growing tertiary care facility committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care in a collaborative environment.

The ICU cares for a diverse patient population with complex critical illnesses including sepsis, respiratory failure, shock, multisystem organ failure, post-operative surgical patients, and other acute medical conditions requiring advanced critical care management. The intensivist will work closely with hospitalists, surgeons, subspecialists, nursing staff, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, and advanced practice providers to deliver evidence-based, multidisciplinary care.

The ideal candidate will have expertise in the management of critically ill patients, including ventilator management, airway management, bedside procedures, hemodynamic monitoring, and the treatment of complex multisystem disease processes. Experience with bronchoscopy, central venous catheter placement, arterial line placement, and point-of-care ultrasound is preferred.

Candidates should demonstrate a strong commitment to quality, patient safety, and teamwork, as well as an interest in the education and mentorship of medical students, residents, advanced practice providers, and nursing staff when applicable.

The ICU is supported by advanced practice providers and multidisciplinary ancillary teams, creating a collaborative and efficient care environment. Intensivists work a shift-based schedule designed to support continuity of care and physician work-life balance.

We offer a collegial and supportive work environment with outstanding nursing and operational support, along with opportunities for professional growth and leadership development within the Houston Methodist system. The Department offers highly competitive compensation, flexible scheduling, CME support, and a comprehensive benefits package, including malpractice coverage, Defined Contribution Plan, 403(b) retirement investments with employer match, and medical and dental coverage for the physician and family.
