Why physicians should take a closer look

• Sustainable call: 1:4 call that is typically low volume and primarily managed by phone.
• Established colleagues: Join a stable team of four pediatric cardiologists with shared responsibilities.
• Strong subspecialty backup: Access extensive pediatric cardiology expertise in Omaha, including interventional cardiology, advanced imaging, electrophysiology, heart failure and transplant, pulmonary hypertension, exercise physiology and adult congenital heart disease.
• Expand your impact without constant travel: Remote echo interpretation and outreach opportunities extend the practice's reach while limiting excessive travel.

• The best of both settings: Build your practice in Des Moines with the autonomy of a community-based team and the resources, subspecialty expertise, and support of a large academic pediatric cardiology program.
