Interventional Cardiologist
$700,000–$800,000+ | Build a Structural Program | Practice Autonomy | Major Growth Opportunity

This role offers the rare chance to help launch and shape a Structural Heart Program alongside an experienced interventionalist, with full institutional support and significant earning potential.
The Big Questions — Answered Clearly
Structural Volume?
-
There is no formal structural program yet
-
One existing interventional cardiologist already performs structural work
-
The program is ready to launch immediately once the right second interventionalist joins
-
You will have a seat at the table in building the program from the ground up
Call?
-
Interventional call shared within the group
-
No STEMI overload culture
-
Sustainable model designed to support long-term retention
Compensation?
-
$700,000–$800,000+ total compensation potential
-
Final structure based on experience, procedural mix, and program build-out
-
Significant upside tied to procedural growth and structural expansion
Why This Opportunity Is Different
-
Opportunity to co-build a Structural Heart program, not inherit a broken one
-
Strong existing interventional volume with room to expand
-
Supportive leadership actively investing in cardiovascular growth
-
Ability to shape protocols, workflows, and service-line direction
-
High earning potential without coastal-market burnout
Clinical Scope
-
Interventional cardiology procedures with strong cath lab support
-
Opportunity to grow structural services (TAVR, Watchman, etc.)
-
Balanced mix of procedures and consultative cardiology
-
Collaborative environment with experienced cardiology and hospital teams
Who This Is Ideal For
-
Interventional cardiologists with structural interest or experience
-
Physicians who want leadership without bureaucracy
-
Clinicians seeking high income + real influence
-
Cardiologists ready to help build something meaningful, not just maintain volume

-
Top-tier compensation

The chance to launch a structural program
-
Institutional backing without micromanagement
-
Long-term growth in a stable, underserved market
