The Carman and Ann Adams Department of Pediatrics at the Children’s Hospital of Michigan, Wayne State University School of Medicine is actively recruiting a board certified/board eligible Pediatric Cardiac Electrophysiologist at the Assistant or Associate Professor level to join an established Electrophysiology program. IBHRE certification is strongly recommended, but not required.

The successful applicant will join the current Senior Pediatric Electrophysiologist and dedicated EP nurse, along with 15 other Cardiologists, 2 Surgeons, and 7 other mid-level providers. This is an excellent opportunity to be a part of Detroit’s largest Cardiology and only Pediatric EP and Cardiovascular surgical programs! The position includes providing invasive and non-invasive electrophysiology services, inpatient and outpatient consultations, EP studies with 3D mapping and catheter ablations as well as device implant and explant to both pediatric and adult congenial heart patients. Expertise in pacing/ICD lead extraction is strongly preferred. Some general Cardiology duties as well as Resident/Fellow teaching are to be expected.

In addition to EP, the Division of Cardiology has established echocardiography, interventional, adult congenial, heart failure/transplant, pulmonary hypertension, as well as Cardiology Fellowship training programs. Drawing from a population of approximately 5 million people in Southeast Michigan, the division provides approximately 7500 outpatient visits, 700 cardiac catheterizations, and 110-130 EP/pacemaker procedures annually and is in the process of a major physical expansion. We currently actively follow 200 patients after pacemaker implantation and 55 patients with ICD’s. Two congenial heart surgeons perform over 300 operations annually including heart transplant. Inpatient work is performed in Children’s Hospital of Michigan, the only free-standing children’s hospital in Michigan and the teach hospital for Wayne State University. In additional, there are numerous opportunities for clinical, translational, and basic science research.

Candidates must be BE/BC with an active Michigan license (or in progress). MD or DO required.
