Cardiology - Noninvasive Physician
Ardent Health Services, Tulsa, OK, United States
Join the top cardiology team in Tulsa, Oklahoma at Hillcrest Healthcare System s Oklahoma Heart Institute! We are seeking a forward-thinking, passionate, engaging BE/BC non-invasive cardiologist to join our comprehensive, high-quality, multidisciplinary heart center. We are looking for a candidate interested in helping grow the program while achieving their professional goals. The ideal candidate will be motivated to continue to build on their training and expand their skill set. As noted, there is tremendous opportunity for professional growth in this practice and program, given the comprehensive nature of the services offered. The selected physician will alternate rounding and call for holidays and weekends as part of a collegial team. Be part of a comprehensive team that includes advanced heart failure, electrophysiology, structural heart, CVT surgery, vascular surgery, and interventional cardiology. Enjoy this opportunity to become established quickly, and opportunities for advanced imaging reads.
The non-invasive cardiology clinic is collegial, multidisciplinary, and efficient, with strong collaboration between structural interventional cardiology, cardiac surgery, advanced heart failure, and cardiac imaging. Structural interventional cardiology and cardiac surgery see patients on the same day and imaging is also often obtained on the same day to offer an efficient and streamlined service to our patients. We see referrals to Structural Heart and Valve clinics from many locations around Tulsa, including a sizeable referral population from practices in neighboring cities and states. This includes referrals for simple/straightforward valve issues to very complex cases.
The hospital culture mimics the clinic culture as outlined above. We have a comprehensive, multidisciplinary cardiology practice with all cardiology services offered. Different cardiology divisions (EP, heart failure, vascular) collaborate to provide excellent patient care. Outside of the cardiology service line, the hospital offers all subspecialty services, and it is a collaborative and collegial environment. This large community hospital (approximately 800 beds) serves as a tertiary care center with all cardiology and subspecialty services offered besides heart transplantation.
