Advanced Heart Failure Cardiologist

Advanced Heart Failure Cardiologist Sands-Constellation Heart & Vascular Institute | Rochester Regional Health | Rochester, NY

Advanced Heart Failure. Cardiogenic Shock. Dedicated CICU. Destination LVAD.

The Sands-Constellation Heart & Vascular Institute at Rochester Regional Health is seeking a fellowship-trained Advanced Heart Failure Cardiologist to join an established, dedicated Advanced Heart Failure team in Rochester, New York.

This is a true Advanced Heart Failure practice — not a general cardiology position with a Heart Failure component.

For physicians drawn to the clinical complexity of Advanced Heart Failure, but who are not specifically seeking a career centered around heart transplantation, this offers a distinctive opportunity to practice at high acuity within a collaborative, well-supported cardiovascular institute.

Sands-Constellation Heart & Vascular Institute provides comprehensive Advanced Heart Failure care across a broad regional referral network.

• Dedicated Advanced Heart Failure practice with fellowship-trained HF physicians
• Dedicated Cardiac Intensive Care Unit (CICU) with strong Advanced Heart Failure physician involvement
• Active cardiogenic shock program, including temporary mechanical circulatory support and ECMO
• Destination LVAD program with involvement in evaluation, management, and longitudinal follow-up
• Heart transplant collaboration with NYU, providing access to transplant expertise and shared management of appropriate transplant patients
• Advanced invasive hemodynamics, including right heart catheterization and exercise right heart catheterization
• Endomyocardial biopsy and pulmonary angiography
• Comprehensive HFpEF, amyloidosis, pulmonary hypertension, and inherited cardiomyopathy programs
• Implantable hemodynamic monitoring, including CardioMEMS
• Dedicated Heart Failure infusion services and cardiopulmonary exercise testing
• Clinical research and trials supported by dedicated infrastructure and staff
• Multidisciplinary collaboration across Cardiology, Cardiac Surgery, Critical Care, Genetics, Pharmacy, and Advanced Practice Providers

This role is designed for a physician who wants to practice Advanced Heart Failure at meaningful clinical acuity while working within an experienced, multidisciplinary team.

• Inpatient and outpatient management of advanced systolic and diastolic heart failure
• Evaluation and management of cardiogenic shock
• Participation in the dedicated CICU
• LVAD evaluation, management, and longitudinal care
• Participation in ECMO and mechanical circulatory support management
• Advanced invasive hemodynamic assessment and interpretation
• Management of pulmonary hypertension and other pulmonary vascular disease
• Care of patients with amyloidosis, inherited cardiomyopathies, and complex HFpEF
• Teaching and mentorship of medical students, residents, fellows, nurses, and Advanced Practice Providers
• Opportunities for clinical research, trials, quality improvement, and program development

This is an opportunity to build or advance an Advanced Heart Failure practice with the clinical complexity, infrastructure, and multidisciplinary support needed to care for some of the region's most complex cardiovascular patients.

Physicians are supported by experienced subspecialists, dedicated Advanced Practice Providers, established referral networks, and the resources of a growing cardiovascular institute. The program provides opportunities to develop clinical expertise, participate in education and research, contribute to program development, and help shape the continued growth of Advanced Heart Failure services.

If you are looking for a practice where Advanced Heart Failure is the focus — and cardiogenic shock, CICU medicine, mechanical circulatory support, and destination LVAD therapy are part of the clinical experience — we'd welcome the opportunity to talk with you.
