Seeking an experienced, board-certified Cardiothoracic Surgical Physician Assistant to complete a four-PA team in an established, single-specialty cardiovascular surgery practice. This is an outstanding opportunity for a skilled first assist who wants real autonomy. The surgeons operate and the PAs run the service, so you practice at the top of your license every day.
Position Highlights
• A true full-service role. Every PA rotates through the OR, CVICU, consults and clinic, so no two days are the same.
• Responsibilities include first assisting the cardiac surgeons, postoperative care of ICU and floor patients, and follow-up clinic visits.
• Surgeons focus on operating and trust the PAs to manage patients, procedures and the daily flow of the service.
• 1:4 call schedule with overnight call mostly phone-based patient management through a secure messaging app.
Candidate Requirements
• At least 3 years of cardiothoracic surgery PA experience, actively first assisting in the OR
• Endoscopic vein harvesting (EVH) experience required
• Proficiency in first assisting, including closed chest and soft tissue work
• CVICU experience is a plus, and the team can train ICU skills
• Licensed or eligible to practice as a Physician Assistant in North Carolina
