Job description

Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare's University Hospital seeks a Non-Invasive Cardiologist to join our team. ABIM board eligibility/certification in adult cardiovascular diseases is required, but further subspecialty fellowship training in advanced cardiac imaging [e.g., structural/3D transesophageal echocardiography, cardiovascular CT angiography (CCTA), cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)] or advanced heart failure/cardiac transplantation/pulmonary hypertension will be an asset. This is a hospital-employed position within a multi-hospital system in the Memphis metropolitan area with competitive earning potential.

Cardiovascular specialties include general cardiology, interventional cardiology, including high-risk Impella (R) supported procedures, structural cardiology (percutaneous PFO/ASD closure), clinical cardiac electrophysiology with CIED (PPM, ICD, CRT-D/P, leadless pacemakers) implantation and atrial/ventricular ablations, vascular surgery, cardiovascular surgery, and thoracic surgery. Non-invasive imaging services include echocardiography (transthoracic, transesophageal, dobutamine, treadmill stress echocardiography), nuclear cardiology (SPECT, including PYP studies), CCTA, CMR, and coronary calcium scoring. Advanced cardiac imaging is performed in collaboration with cardiothoracic Radiologists. With a robust and heterogeneous heart failure population with a currently unmet need, opportunities exist for developing a heart failure program.

Offering:

• Competitive guaranteed base salary commensurate with training and experience

• RVU productivity on top of the base salary
