in student loan repayment and hiring incentive Description: The
Division of Cardiology offers a comprehensive spectrum of
cardiology subspecialty services. Having the only Cardiac
Catheterization laboratory in the Veterans Integrated Service
Network (VISN) 4, VAPHS ranks among the highest volume of VA
Cardiac Catheterization labs nationwide, performing nearly 1400
diagnostic catheterizations and ~450 interventions (including
complex percutaneous coronary interventions), yearly. VAPHS has an
active Chronic Total Occlusion program, a Shock Team, a Cardiac
Surgery Service, and are currently constructing a state-of-the art
hybrid operating room for structural heart disease interventions.
The Electrophysiology Section (EP), also the only EP provider in
our VISN, provides full EP services (~500 devices and ~100
ablations annually). The Echocardiography Laboratory provides
transthoracic, transesophageal, and stress echo services (~6700
studies per year), and we perform ~1800 nuclear stress tests
annually. VAPHS has an active cardiology outpatient clinic,
including ~5000 clinic encounters and 4000 E-consults yearly at the
Pittsburgh site, and are expanding outreach clinics in counties
outside of Pittsburgh. Practice Highlights: The VAPHS Cardiology
Division is strongly committed to the academic mission and the
mentoring of physician-scientists and next-generation scientific
leaders. The clinical program is additionally nourished by close
interaction with the Heart and Vascular Institute at the University
of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC), where some VA faculty also
practice, and by UPMC cardiology fellows who rotate at the VA
Hospital as part of their ACGME-accredited fellowship training.
