About SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital - Madison:
SSM Health-Dean Medical Group, a robust multi-specialty group comprising 500 physicians, is actively seeking a skilled Physician Assistant specializing in Cardiothoracic Surgery. Join our well-established Cardiothoracic Surgery Department, currently comprised of 3 physicians and 6 advanced practice providers (APs). We require candidates to have relevant post-educational experience as a practicing Physician Assistant in the field of Cardiothoracic Surgery.
Our hospital boasts leading-edge robotic surgery capabilities, making us one of the few centers nationwide to provide both robotic cardiac and thoracic surgery. We perform an extensive range of adult cardiac and thoracic surgeries, including CABG, valve surgery, aortic aneurysms and dissections, as well as pulmonary resections and decortications. Please note that we do not provide ventricular assist devices.

- Participating in night call on weeknights and weekends (anticipated frequency of 1 in 6 for each) for floor patients and the operating room
- Occasional outpatient clinic care, though primarily focused on inpatient and OR responsibilities
