As a Non-Invasive Cardiologist, you will play a pivotal role in diagnosing, treating, and managing a wide range of cardiovascular conditions using cutting-edge non-invasive techniques. Your contributions will significantly impact patient care, research advancements, and the education of future cardiologists. Areas of responsibility will include, but not be limited to a combination of inpatient, outpatient care and diagnostic imaging with dedicated echocardiography, Cardiac MR, and Cardiac CT imaging time, as well as ample opportunity for teaching and research.

MCW is a distinguished leader and innovator in the education and development of the next generation of physicians, scientists, pharmacists and health professionals; we discover and translate new knowledge in the biomedical and health sciences; we provide cutting-edge, collaborative, patient care of the highest quality; and we improve the health of the communities we serve.

Alongside these specialized interventions, we also deliver routine EP care to meet diverse patient needs.

In the realm of imaging, our section is tasked with interpreting complex studies across various modalities, such as cardiac MRI, cardiac CT, and cardiac PET. Furthermore, our imaging experts play an integral role in our structural heart program. They perform and analyze both transthoracic and transesophageal studies of a complex nature.

Beyond these capabilities, our partnership with Children's Hospital of Wisconsin has given rise to a robust adult congenital heart disease program. This collaboration ensures comprehensive and coordinated care across all age groups.
