Inpatient

BJC Medical Group is seeking a BC/BE Non-Invasive Cardiologist to join a new inpatient-focused cardiology program serving Barnes-Jewish St. Peters Hospital and Progress West Hospital in St. Charles County, Missouri.

This is an exciting opportunity to help grow an inpatient cardiology service while practicing in two highly respected community hospitals backed by BJC HealthCare. Enjoy a predictable inpatient schedule, strong physician support, and the resources of one of the nation's leading nonprofit health systems—all while living in one of the fastest-growing suburbs of the St. Louis metropolitan area.
