We seek a physician with the experience and desire to initiate an interventional program at our hospital. The regional heart hospital is 20 minutes away for backup. We have an active cath lab with room for capacity to be filled, an office adjacent to the hospital with nuclear medicine, 3-D Echo and limited vascular imaging in-office. The practice model can be flexible: with start-up support and income guarantee provided by the hospital as a solo practitioner with call support from the regional group or to have an income guarantee directly from the regional practice group within their corporate structure. Come explore the options for a great career change for you by giving stellar care to our patients.
