  • NP coverage supports hospital rounding
  • High-volume Cath Lab performing 300–400 procedures annually, specializing in high-risk PCI and complex coronary interventions
  • Full atherectomy suite: laser, rotational, orbital, and intravascular lithotripsy
  • Mechanical circulatory support capabilities including Impella, Tandem Heart, and ECMO
  • Dedicated cardiogenic shock program serving as the primary regional referral hub
  • On-site structural cardiology program and comprehensive CT surgery backup
  • Active interventional cardiology fellowship program with mentorship opportunities
  • Participation available in multiple ongoing clinical research trials
  • Centralized support services: billing, credentialing, HR, compliance, marketing, and business development
  • Practice spans two acclaimed hospital campuses — St. Joseph's Hospital and St. Mary's Hospital

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation package
  • Malpractice insurance provided
  • Health, dental, and life insurance
  • 401(k) with employer matching
  • Deferred compensation program
  • Relocation assistance
  • Paid time off and CME allowance
