This will be part of a new multi-specialty pediatric and adult site, and the practitioner will provide comprehensive pediatric cardiology outpatient care, including fetal services, to the Queens community. The ideal candidate would have 3+ years of experience and be passionate about providing outpatient care in a community setting with a diverse patient population. Strong communication skills and dedication to interacting with referring physicians and local nurseries are essential.

Appropriate time for program building will be provided within the schedule. The physician will spend three days a week at the Jackson Heights site, with additional time to be determined at the main Cohen Children’s Heart Center location in New Hyde Park or Lenox Hill area.
