Our organization is in search of a Board Certified/Board Eligible (BC/BE) Pediatric Cardiologist to join the Pediatric Specialty Group at our facility in Santa Clara, California, situated in the vibrant Silicon Valley.

The selected physician will be responsible for the thorough evaluation and management of fetuses, neonates, infants, children, and adolescents dealing with both congenital and acquired heart conditions in various settings, including inpatient and outpatient care. A key aspect of this role involves working closely with our Maternal-Fetal Medicine specialists to ensure exceptional prenatal screening, diagnosis, counseling, and management for fetuses diagnosed with congenital heart disease and cardiac dysrhythmias. The ideal candidate will play a vital role in a well-coordinated, family-centered care model that supports patients throughout their healthcare journey.

Our pediatric cardiologists benefit from a skilled multidisciplinary team, which includes case managers, social workers, child life specialists, and dedicated clinical support staff. This position also allows for collaboration with pediatric cardiology colleagues across Northern California, as well as with our pediatric cardiac surgery and interventional cardiology programs and academic partners. This integrated network promotes a collegial, multidisciplinary atmosphere focused on clinical excellence, innovation, and outstanding patient outcomes.

The perfect candidate will exhibit exceptional clinical, communication, and teaching abilities; show a strong dedication to patient- and family-centered care; and excel in a collaborative academic and clinical setting.

We provide a fully integrated practice environment equipped with an electronic medical record system and a strong emphasis on innovation and high-quality patient care. Our inpatient facilities feature a 26-bed Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, a 28-bed Pediatric Unit, and an 8-bed Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, all staffed around the clock by Pediatric Hospitalists and Pediatric Critical Care/Intensivists. We also maintain close partnerships with our pediatric surgical and subspecialty colleagues, including the regional pediatric cardiac surgical program, as well as our academic collaborators.
