Job Details
The Stanford Department of Pediatrics is committed to advancing the health of infants, children, and adolescents through innovative medical care, research, education, training, and advocacy. With over 400 pediatricians and pediatric subspecialties, our department is one of the largest in the Stanford University School of Medicine. Ranked among the top in the nation by US News and World Report, we attract medical students, interns, postdoctoral scholars, residents, fellows, and faculty from around the world by offering broad-based training in general pediatrics, critical care and pediatric subspecialties within a variety of ambulatory, inpatient and community settings. Integrated with our educational activities, these programs provide hands-on learning to equip our graduates with the skills they'll need as future advocates of children's health.
The Department of Pediatrics is a dynamic, stimulating place to work and because we are focused on growth and improved excellence, our faculty and staff have particularly challenging and rewarding roles.
The Division of Cardiology in the Department of Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine/ Stanford Medicine Children’s Health is recruiting a Pediatric Cardiac Interventionalist at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford (LPCHS). The successful candidate would be a Clinical Assistant Professor, Clinical Associate Professor, or Clinical Professor in the Clinician Educator line. The major criterion for appointment as Clinician Educators is excellence in the overall mix of clinical care, teaching, administrative and/or scholarship appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is expected to fulfill.
Academic rank and line will be determined by the qualifications and experience of the successful candidate.
The ideal candidate should be board certified in Pediatric Cardiology, and he/she should have completed advanced training in pediatric interventional cardiology and experienced with patients from infancy through adulthood. The successful candidate will serve as one of 4 attending cardiac interventionalists.

Extensive opportunities exist for research collaborations with investigators at the School of Medicine and other departments throughout Stanford University.
The Children’s Heart Center at LPCHS is ranked among the nation’s top pediatric cardiac programs and includes over 70+ pediatric cardiologists and cardiovascular scientists within the Division of Pediatric Cardiology who collectively provide clinical care, teach, and perform clinical, translational and basic research. There are three pediatric catheterization laboratories. Two of the labs are dedicated for interventional cardiology with state-of-the-art Canon equipment and hybrid capability. There is collaboration with adult cardiology, interventional radiology, and neuro-interventional teams. Patients range in age from premature neonates to adults, and patient complexity and acuity are amongst the highest in the nation. We perform 1100-1200 cases per year, with approximately two-thirds of these cases being interventional. The CVICU is a 36-bed dedicated unit that provides all forms of cardiovascular intensive care for children as well as adults with congenital and acquired heart disease. A full range of clinical services is available, including mechanical circulatory support for heart failure patients with ventricular assist devices and ECMO. LPCH maintains a busy cardiac transplantation program.
