• On-Call Service: Participate in the interventional cardiology on-call schedule for emergency procedures, including STEMI response.

• Technology Adoption: Drive the adoption and integration of new, state-of-the-art diagnostic and therapeutic technologies within the interventional cardiology service.

Requirements:

• Education and Training: Doctor of Medicine (M.D. or D.O.) from an accredited institution. Completion of an accredited residency in Internal Medicine and a fellowship in Cardiovascular Disease, followed by a dedicated fellowship in Interventional Cardiology.

• Certification: Board Certified in Internal Medicine, Cardiovascular Disease, and Interventional Cardiology.

• Licensure: Current, unrestricted state medical license.

• Experience: Significant post-fellowship experience (typically 3+ years) performing a high volume of complex coronary and structural heart procedures.

• Technical Expertise: Demonstrated mastery of advanced interventional techniques, including complex PCI (e.g., chronic total occlusion), rotational atherectomy, advanced imaging modalities, and structural heart interventions.

• Leadership Skills: Proven ability to lead a team in a high-pressure environment, demonstrate sound clinical judgment, and effectively mentor developing professionals.

• Communication: Exceptional interpersonal and communication skills to effectively interact with patients, families, staff, and referring physicians.
