The Department of Pediatrics at the Steven and Alexandra Cohen Children’s Medical Center of New York is seeking a BC/BE Fellowship trained Pediatric Cardiologist with additional training or experience in Pediatric Cardiac Catheterization to join our award-winning team of physicians in our New Hyde Park/Queens location. Our division is currently performing about 160 catheterizations per year that include the breath of cardiac interventions and has one of the largest experiences with the Piccolo device in the region, as well as trans-catheter valve replacements, device closures etc. The ideal candidate will have at least 5-8 years of clinical experience and have a vision to help assist in the further growth of our rapidly growing division. Our current Cath Lab director is committed to ongoing clinical care and excellence, and to working with the incoming director to support their leadership. Consideration of a more junior person is possible with the potential for transitioning to the director role in the future. Active interest and a track record of research and investigation is highly desirable.
The Pediatric Heart Center at Cohen Children’s Medical Center is an integrated program, with specialists in cardiac surgery, cardiology, and critical care. Programs of excellence include interventional catheterization, advanced CT and MR imaging, COVID/MIS-C follow up, Advanced Fetal Center, genetic aortopathies, electrophysiology and device implantation, comprehensive echocardiography, as well as the inception of our heart failure program.
The Steven and Alexandra Cohen Children’s Medical Center is rated by US News as the best children’s hospital in New York State and one of the five best in the mid-Atlantic region. It is the largest pediatric teaching hospital in the New York metropolitan region, with more than 13,000 admissions per year. It is the tertiary pediatric medical center of Northwell Health, formally the North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System, and is the only Level-1 Pediatric Trauma Center and ECMO Center on Long Island.
Cohen Children’s is the only children's hospital on Long Island that offers comprehensive pediatric/congenital cardiology and cardiac surgery care from pregnancy through infancy, childhood, adolescence and adulthood for congenital heart disease. The Cohen Children’s Heart Center provides more than 14,000 inpatient and outpatient visits annually. With one of the highest volume programs in New York State, the Division of Pediatric Cardiology has a long reputation of providing exceptional cardiovascular care throughout the region.
We offer a competitive salary and benefits package. In addition, an academic appointment with The Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell is commensurate with credentials and experience. Physicians will be employed as members of Northwell Physician Partners, the seventh largest medical group in the country.
