Anesthesiologist Assistant Jobs in Texas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a anesthesiologist assistant in Texas?
To practice as an anesthesiologist assistant in Texas, you must complete an accredited master's-level anesthesiologist assistant program and pass the Certifying Examination for Anesthesiologist Assistants administered by the National Commission for Certification of Anesthesiologist Assistants. Texas regulates anesthesiologist assistants under the Texas Medical Board, which requires licensure as a physician assistant with an anesthesiology designation. Applicants submit credentials and supervising physician agreements directly to the Texas Medical Board before practicing.
How much do anesthesiologist assistants make in Texas?
Anesthesiologist assistants in Texas earn a median of about $134,550 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $102,650 for the lowest 10% to over $169,000 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire anesthesiologist assistants in Texas?
Employers hiring anesthesiologist assistants in Texas right now include UTHealth Houston, MD Anderson Cancer Center, and Baylor Scott & White Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Texas's large integrated health systems and independent surgical hospital networks are the most consistent sources of full-time openings across the state.
Which Texas cities have the most anesthesiologist assistant jobs?
Houston, Belton, and Marble Falls account for the greatest concentration of anesthesiologist assistant openings in Texas. Houston leads because of its dense cluster of major medical centers and the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world, while Dallas and San Antonio generate steady demand through their large academic health systems and growing networks of ambulatory surgery centers.
Are there remote anesthesiologist assistant jobs in Texas?
Yes, but they're rare. Anesthesiologist assistant work is inherently hands-on and chair-side, so the overwhelming majority of roles require full on-site presence in an operating room or procedure suite. About 0% of anesthesiologist assistant openings tied to Texas are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions typically involve clinical education, program coordination, or telemedicine consultation rather than direct patient anesthesia care.
How can I get hired as a anesthesiologist assistant in Texas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for new-graduate or clinical residency positions directly with large Texas health systems such as Houston Methodist or UT Southwestern, both of which onboard new anesthesiologist assistants with structured orientation and mentorship. Candidates coming from surgical technologist or respiratory therapist backgrounds have an easier time moving into entry anesthesia support roles. Holding active NCCAA certification and current ACLS credentials from the moment you graduate gives your application a meaningful edge in competitive Texas markets.
Where can I find and apply to anesthesiologist assistant jobs in Texas?
You can find and apply to anesthesiologist assistant jobs in Texas on Migrate Mate, which lists current Texas openings from employers actively hiring. Find roles that fit your experience and location and apply directly to the employer without creating an account or signing up.
