The Stanford Department of Pediatrics is committed to advancing the health of infants, children, and adolescents

through innovative medical care, research, education, training, and advocacy. With over 400 pediatricians and

pediatric subspecialties, our department is one of the largest in the Stanford University School of Medicine. Ranked

among the top in the nation by US News and World Report, we attract medical students, interns, postdoctoral

scholars, residents, fellows, and faculty from around the world. We offer broad-based training in general pediatrics,

critical care and pediatric subspecialties within a variety of ambulatory, inpatient and community settings. Integrated

with our educational activities, these programs provide hands-on learning to equip our graduates with the skills

they'll need as future advocates of children's health.

The Department of Pediatrics is a dynamic, stimulating place to work and because we are focused on growth and

improved excellence, our faculty and staff have particularly challenging and rewarding roles.

The Division of Pediatric Cardiology in the Department of Pediatrics at Stanford University School of Medicine/

Stanford Medicine Children's Health is recruiting a pediatric cardiologist with experience in pediatric pulmonary

hypertension to join the Division as a Clinical Assistant Professor, Clinical Associate Professor, or Clinical Professor in

the Clinician Educator line. The major criterion for appointment as Clinician Educators is excellence in the overall mix

of clinical care, teaching, administrative and/or scholarship appropriate to the programmatic need the individual is

expected to fulfill. Academic rank and line will be determined by the qualifications and experience of the successful

candidate.

The successful applicant must have a medical degree (MD) or equivalent. Candidates should have clinical training in

Pediatrics and Pediatric Cardiology (completed fellowship and be board eligible/certified). Advanced clinical training

and/or post-fellowship clinical experience in pediatric pulmonary hypertension is preferred. They will have

demonstrated outstanding clinical abilities in the care of infants and children with pulmonary vascular disease. They

will serve as an attending physician in the Pulmonary Vascular Disease Program at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital

Stanford (LPCHS). Job responsibilities will include attending on the inpatient Pulmonary Hypertension Consult Service

at LPCHS and outpatient clinical care of children with pulmonary vascular disease in the Betty Irene Moore Children's

Heart Center. Your responsibilities will also include primary inpatient service coverage on our ACCU unit and

maintaining a panel of patients in our OP clinics. There may be additional opportunities to participate in

multidisciplinary subspecialty clinics (see below). In addition to training residents and categorical fellows in Pediatric

Cardiology, our faculty train up to one senior fellow in Pediatric Pulmonary Vascular Disease annually.

The Pediatric Pulmonary Vascular Disease Program at Stanford is one of the nation's leading centers for the

research, diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary vascular disease in children. We care for infants, children, and

adolescents across the spectrum of pulmonary vascular disease through our inpatient consultation service and

dedicated outpatient clinics. Our multidisciplinary team includes physicians in Pediatric Cardiology, Cardiac Intensive

Care, and Pulmonary Medicine, as well as two nurse practitioners, a social worker and genetic counselor. As part of

the Betty Irene Moore Children's Heart Center, we care for children with congenital heart disease and pulmonary

hypertension and collaborate with colleagues in the Pediatric Advanced Cardiac Therapies (PACT) team in the care of

patients with single ventricle hearts and/or heart failure with pulmonary vascular disease. We work closely with

colleagues in Neonatology and Pulmonary Medicine, including the Pediatric Lung and Heart-Lung transplant Program

at LPCHS, the only pediatric lung transplant program on the West Coast. Faculty will have the opportunity to

participate in several multidisciplinary programs, including the Alagille Syndrome Program, Cardiac and Respiratory

Care for Infants with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (CRIB) Program, Center for Advanced Lung Therapies (CEAL), and

Pulmonary Artery Reconstruction (PAR) Program. Educational and clinical research opportunities are available with

support from Vera Moulton Wall Center for Pulmonary Vascular Disease at Stanford, a joint program between

Stanford Medicine Children's Health and Stanford Health Care.
