Baton Rouge LA, United States Ochsner Health Full time

Ochsner Health Baton Rouge is seeking a Board Certified/Board Eligible PEDIATRIC CARDIOLOGIST to join a busy outpatient based pediatric cardiology practice as a partner to two experienced pediatric cardiologists. The role is a primarily outpatient pediatric cardiology position with some inpatient responsibilities consisting of mainly NICU care and inpatient pediatric cardiology consults at several local hospitals. The position requires a strong background in transthoracic echo. Fetal echo experience is preferred. J-1 visa sponsorship is available.

The Pediatric Cardiology clinic is based at the Shaquille O’Neal Pediatric Super Clinic inside the Ochsner Medical Complex – The Grove. The fifth floor of the complex is dedicated to treating kids, with a full complement of pediatricians and pediatric specialists. The Ochsner Health Baton Rouge Pediatric Cardiology practice is closely affiliated with the New Orleans based Ochsner Hospital for Children Division of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiothoracic Surgery.

Ochsner Hospital for Children has consistently been ranked among the top 50 children’s hospitals in the country pediatric cardiology and cardiac surgery by U.S. News and World Report and is the only children’s hospital in Louisiana or Mississippi ever recognized by US News & World Report as a specialty top 50.

Ochsner Health has all pediatric cardiac sub-specialties including EP, ACHD, heart failure & heart transplant, interventional cardiology, imaging including echocardiography and cardiac MRI, and fetal cardiology. Our team includes 3 congenital heart surgeons, and our patients re cared for in a dedicated pediatric cardiac intensive care unit.

Our comprehensive Pediatrics Program including primary care pediatricians and pediatric medical and surgical subspecialists (Ochsner Children’s) represents over 230 physicians. The group is the region’s leading integrated provider of multispecialty care for newborns, infants, children, adolescents, and young adults. We offer a full range of pediatric complex specialty services including congenital heart surgery and cardiac transplantation, liver and bone marrow transplantation, a comprehensive surgical sub-specialty group, and the region’s only comprehensive multidisciplinary developmental center.

We recently announced the building of a new separate, comprehensive, dedicated Children’s Hospital on our main campus, with expected opening in 2027.

We currently care for patients in an expanding 54-bed Level IV Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, a 14-bed PICU, a 12-bed pediatric CV-ICU, and a 44-bed pediatric acute unit, with a dedicated pediatric emergency room, and full-time, region-wide in-house pediatric and neonatal transport teams.

In addition to patient care, Ochsner Children’s Hospital has an ACGME-accredited pediatric residency program and is responsible for teaching pediatric residents from the Tulane-Ochsner Pediatric Residency program as well as medical students from both Tulane and the University of Queensland. Ochsner Health and Xavier University of Louisiana recently announced an agreement to establish a joint College of Medicine.
