Dr. Markovitz joined the University of Utah School of Medicine and Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital as Professor of Pediatrics and Associate Division Chief for Research in the Division of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine on September 1, 2023.

Dr. Markovitz was recruited to the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles in 2006 to head the hospital’s Division of Critical Care Medicine and serve as Medical Director of the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. He served as Chair of the Department of Anesthesiology Critical Care Medicine from 2018 to 2022. He was also a professor of Clinical Pediatrics and Anesthesiology at the Keck School of Medicine of USC. Dr. Markovitz is Board-certified in anesthesiology and pediatric anesthesiology, as well as pediatrics and pediatric critical care medicine. He has been involved in numerous research studies related to intensive care throughout his career, including transfusions, relationships between Pediatric ICU volume and outcomes, and the treatment of sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Dr. Markovitz is a member of the Pediatric Section of the Society of Critical Care Medicine, the Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Society, and he has served on the Executive Committee of the critical care section of the American Academy of Pediatrics. He has served on several editorial boards and was Chair of the Research Committee of VPS, LLC (Virtual Pediatric Systems), an international pediatric ICU quality and research collaborative. He also recently completed a term as Chair of the Scientific Committee of PALISI (Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators), the largest pediatric critical care research network in North America. He developed and has maintained PedsCCM.org, the website for pediatric critical care, since 1995.

Dr. Markovitz earned his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine and received a master’s in public health from St. Louis University. He did his pediatric internship and residency at Children’s Memorial Hospital (now the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago), Northwestern University Medical Center, and an anesthesiology residency at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.
