Summary
- I am a board certified adult cardio-thoracic surgeon, who was in private practice in the San Jose, CA area for 29 years. I have now re-located to the Denver and am doing locums assignments around the country. I have extensive robotic thoracic (pulmonary) experience, do on- and off-pump coronary revascularization and other adult cardiac surgical procedures. I also have medical staff leadership experience, having been chief-of-staff at Good Samaritan Hospital in San Jose, during which time I oversaw a complete redesign of the quality improvement program at the hospital. I would be interested in hearing of hospital administrative opportunities (CMO) in the Denver Metro area.
