• Step into an established cardiology service line with a robust referral network and significant regional demand.

Program Expansion & Growth Vision

• Interventional procedures are currently performed at Merit Health River Region in Vicksburg, with strategic plans underway to develop a cath lab in Natchez - offering you the opportunity to help shape and grow the program locally.

Flexible Candidate Profile

• Open to 2026/2027 Interventional Cardiology Fellows
• Welcoming experienced Interventional Cardiologists
• J-1 waiver support available for 2027 candidates
• Must be American Board Eligible or Board Certified

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary with strong earning potential
• Fellowship stipend (for physicians still in training)
• Relocation assistance
• Comprehensive benefits package
• CME allowance, dues, and subscriptions
• Licensing and board certification fee support

About Merit Health Natchez

Merit Health Natchez is a 179-bed, Joint Commission-accredited hospital serving patients across five Mississippi counties and two Louisiana parishes - a region locally known as the Miss‑Lou. We are deeply committed to delivering safe, high-quality care while maintaining strong relationships with our patients and community. Physicians here practice in a collaborative, well-resourced environment where they can make a meaningful impact and help shape the future of healthcare in the region.

Why Natchez?

Located along the Mississippi River, Natchez offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Known for its antebellum architecture, vibrant arts scene, and strong community spirit, Natchez provides:

• Affordable cost of living
• Family-friendly neighborhoods
• Minimal traffic and short commutes
• Outdoor recreation including boating, fishing, and hiking
• Close-knit patient relationships and strong physician influence

Here, you can build a meaningful practice while enjoying the quality of life that larger metro areas often can't provide.

Location Description

Situated high on the bluffs above the mighty Mississippi, Natchez is a city 300 years in the making. Steeped in history, elegance and charm, with perfectly preserved homes and buildings from days gone by, Natchez is filled with art, music, culture, natural beauty, outdoor adventures and bustling commerce.
