Interventional Cardiology Opportunity in Jacksonville, Florida
Seeking Interventionalist with heavy peripheral skills or interest – No structural.
The group formed in September 2015. It is a private practice specializing in cardiology and peripheral vascular disease. There are seven physicians in the group : four interventionalists, one electrophysiologist, and two non-invasive cardiologists. The practice is located on the Southside of Jacksonville.
The main office has an abundance of exam rooms, well-trained medical assistants, and five ARNPs. Full ancillary services include an office-based cath lab (converting to an ASC in 2025-26), nuclear medicine including SPECT and cardiac PET, cardiac CT, echocardiography, vascular ultrasound, pacer checks, remote and Holter monitoring, etc. We have registered techs (RVT and RDMS) and a busy venous program including laser and radiofrequency ablations and sclerotherapy.
The OBL is busy with peripheral vascular interventional procedures, cardiac interventions, and coronary diagnostic angiograms. The peripheral cases include many complex cases, including laser atherectomy, rotoblator, and angio jet. The peripheral vascular practice is well established with a diverse referral base. Importantly, more experienced operators work alongside and help new peripheral interventionalists gain experience and exposure to complex cases.
HOSPITAL : The main office is located across the street from a 450-bed hospital, which has six labs (four cardiac and peripheral, one or two full-time EP labs, and a hybrid room). This facility can perform routine coronary and peripheral procedures, EP WACHMAN, lead extraction, and the latest ablations, and has a structural program including TAVR.
The practice maintains several sub-offices. Ordinarily, there may be a few days per month spent at a sub-office for clinic patients. Most clinics are not far away, allowing the entire day to be spent there without other duties. Most doctors live centrally, making travel to offices convenient.
Call rotation for STEMI is most often for established group patients, and may coincide with the hospital STEMI call once per month. The group is on call rotation (1 : 4 or 5).
We have about 25-45 patients in the hospital every day to consult or round, and this number is expected to grow. We have ARNPs to assist.
The group admits 99% of the patients through hospitalists or PCPs, and our cardiologists primarily consult. After hours, phone calls are typically the only responsibility, except interventionalists respond to STEMI or urgent cases.
The volume of this practice is high, with referrals coming from over 100 sources and a large population of established patients. You will enter a very busy practice. There will be some general cardiology for everyone in the group, but interventionalists will be busy with peripheral vascular and coronary cases.
The employment opportunity includes :
- Base salary guarantee
- Productivity bonus
- CME / PTO
- Paid relocation, CME, health insurance, dues, malpractice insurance including tail contribution, cell phone, etc.
