Job Description:
The Department of Pediatrics at the Steven and Alexandra Cohen
Children’s Medical Center of New York, Northwell Health, is seeking
a physician to join the rapidly growing Cohen Children’s Heart
Center with a particular focus on general pediatric cardiology,
echocardiography and fetal echocardiography; MRI/CT imaging
involvement is also a potential. The ideal candidate would be BC/BE
in Pediatric Cardiology and have spent additional time in a
dedicated fourth-year cardiac imaging fellowship or have spent
significant time working in the field. More senior physicians
seeking leadership opportunities are strongly encouraged to apply .
Our clinicians participate in the inpatient and outpatient clinical
activities of the division and details of these activities will be
decided in partnership with the candidate. A strong interest in
helping to grow our programs and pursue research in the field of
echocardiography is desirable, as is a commitment to work and
partner with multidisciplinary team members. The Cohen Children’s
Heart Center sits across the Department of Pediatrics of Northwell
Health. Under the leadership of the System Chiefs of Pediatric
Cardiology, Dr. Jeffrey Gossett, and Pediatric Cardiothoracic
Surgery, Dr. Neil K. Worrall the Heart Center functions as a highly
collaborative, multidisciplinary team focused on clinical and
academic excellence. We are one of the highest volume programs in
New York State, and the only children’s hospital on Long Island
that offers comprehensive cardiac and cardiac surgical care from
pregnancy through infancy, childhood, adolescence and adulthood for
congenital heart disease. The Heart Center is rapidly growing with
dramatic increase in our clinical programs over the last few years.
The team consists of more than 30 cardiologists helping to assure
outstanding outcomes, and with a strong commitment to further
growth including our now active Mechanial Circulatory Support and
Heart Transplant programs and our soon to be constructed dedicated
pediatric cardiac intensive care. The Heart Center’s director of
cardiac imaging, Dr. Ira Parness, has a deep reputation for
excellence in imaging and is a renowned educator. Under his
leadership, our imaging team currently reads over 20,000 studies
including over 5000 fetal echocardiograms per year. An early fetal
ECHO program has started and is very rapidly growing. The Northwell
Advanced Fetal Care Program is collocated with pediatric cardiology
helping to assure seamless patient care. We have a team of two
dedicated nurse coordinators for our multidisciplinary fetal heart
program who assure communication between the cardiology, obstetric,
surgical and other supporting services, thus extending to prenatal
life our core commitment to patient-centered excellence. Within our
imaging group we also have a robust three-dimensional imaging
program that serves to complement the echocardiographic program.
The Steven and Alexandra Cohen Children’s Medical Center is the
largest pediatric teaching hospital in the New York metropolitan
region, with more than 13,000 admissions per year and a catchment
area of over 8 million people. It is the sole tertiary pediatric
medical center of the 23-hospital Northwell Health system, formally
the North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System and has the only
Level-1 Pediatric Trauma Center and ECMO Center on Long Island.

on Long Island, Westchester and in Manhattan. Cohen Children’s
Medical Center is among the top-rated children’s hospitals in New
