  • Provide preoperative assessment and risk stratification, including patient and family counseling regarding surgical options and expected outcomes.
  • Manage postoperative care, including rounding on hospitalized patients, monitoring recovery, and addressing complications.
  • Collaborate with cardiology, critical care, anesthesia, nursing, and allied health professionals to coordinate perioperative care.
  • Participate in on-call coverage for cardiothoracic surgical services as required.
  • Ensure timely, accurate, and complete documentation in the electronic health record.
  • Adhere to evidence-based practices, clinical protocols, and patient safety standards.
  • Participate in quality improvement initiatives, morbidity and mortality conferences, and performance review activities.
  • Maintain compliance with hospital policies, medical staff bylaws, and regulatory requirements.

Skills and Competencies

  • Strong surgical and clinical decision-making skills.
  • Excellent technical proficiency and attention to detail.
  • Ability to function effectively in high-acuity, time-sensitive clinical environments.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Commitment to patient-centered, ethical, and evidence-based care.

Work Environment and Schedule

  • Hospital-based practice with operating room, inpatient, and consult responsibilities.
  • Schedule may include daytime surgical cases, inpatient rounding, and on-call coverage, including nights and weekends as required.

Requirements

  • Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO) from an accredited medical school.
  • Completion of an ACGME- or AOA-accredited residency in General Surgery or Integrated Cardiothoracic Surgery.
  • Completion of an accredited fellowship in Cardiothoracic Surgery.
  • Minimum 1 year experience.
  • Board certification or board eligibility in Thoracic Surgery.
  • Current, unrestricted medical license or eligibility for licensure in the practicing state.
