CARDIOLOGY

Working within our award-winning Penn Cardiac Care team at the University of Pennsylvania Health System, you will be a part of the most advanced, comprehensive heart care available in the Philadelphia region. Utilizing the latest in cardiology technology, our cardiac technicians and registered nurses collaboratively work alongside world-renowned cardiologists treating heart problems that range from the most common to the most complex. Philadelphia Magazine's 2005 Top Docs issue cited more physicians and surgeons from Penn Cardiac Care than from any other hospital or health system in the region.

As our cardiology departments grow, we are expanding our EPS Labs, cath labs and vascular suites. With procedures similar to that of the operating room and the Interventional Radiology departments, our staff gains valuable experience working with high acuity patients. UPHS uses the latest technologies for cardiac diagnostic and interventional procedures, including valvuloplasy, PFO/ ASD, ablations (a-fib, a flutter, VT, epicardial VT, SVT, AVNRT, WPW), lead extractions, permanent pacemaker and ICD placement.

At UPHS, you will have the opportunity to be a part of cutting-edge research that will advance the field of cardiology, while maintaining work/life balance. Our EPS lab staff are not required to work nights and holidays, while cath techs are on call approximately every 6 weeks, without the requirement to work nights and weekends.

Our multidisciplinary team approach means that you will be respected and counted on for your knowledge while being exposed to a diverse patient population and professional development opportunities.

Whether you choose to bring your clinical expertise to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Penn Presbyterian Medical Center or Pennsylvania Hospital, you'll enjoy being a part of an outstanding academic environment that offers an exceptional compensation and benefits program, 100% pre-paid tuition, and a culture that fosters respect, collaboration, and professional development opportunities.
