The Division of Cardiovascular Medicine at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) is recruiting an interventional cardiologist to serve as Director of the Complex High-Risk Interventional Procedures (CHIP) and Chronic Total Occlusion (CTO) Program at Froedtert Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin. This is a senior physician-leader role with an established referral base, dedicated cath lab resources, and demonstrated case volume that is ready to lead a regional and national CHIP/CTO referral center.
We will consider candidates across two tracks:
Established CHIP/CTO operators ready to assume directorship immediately, and
Exceptional early-career interventional cardiologists or graduating fellows with dedicated CTO training who will join with a defined development pathway leading to the named directorship
Under prior dedicated leadership, this program supported 200+ complex coronary and CTO cases annually and was the highest sustained CHIP/CTO volumes in the region. The referral pipeline, hybrid operating room access, mechanical circulatory support availability (Impella, IABP), and integrated Heart Team are already in place. The next Director steps into a program with proven volume rather than building from ground zero and is positioned to grow it further across the Froedtert Health and MCW network.
The MCW/Froedtert academic cardiovascular practice includes more than 60 cardiologists across general, interventional, structural, electrophysiology, advanced heart failure, and imaging subspecialties, supported by a full-service ACGME interventional cardiology fellowship. The cardiac catheterization laboratory operates a comprehensive complex coronary and structural heart portfolio (TAVR, M-TEER, T-TEER, TTVR, WATCHMAN/LAAC, paravalvular leak closure, BASILICA, LAMPOON, transcaval, ASD/PFO/VSD closure, etc.) and is an active site for industry-sponsored and investigator-initiated trials.
The CHIP/CTO Director will work alongside the Medical Director of the Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory and Structural Heart Disease Program leadership in a collaborative, growth-oriented division. Faculty rank and academic appointment will be commensurate with experience.
The Director provides strategic, clinical, academic, and operational leadership for the CHIP/CTO program, including:
Outstanding fellows and early-career interventional cardiologists with dedicated CTO/CHIP training are encouraged to apply. For these candidates, MCW will provide a structured development pathway to the named directorship, including:

Milwaukee, the largest city in Wisconsin, is located on Lake Michigan’s western shore. A metropolitan area with more than 1.6 million people, Milwaukee is an affordable, comfortable place to live, work, and play, big enough to be exciting and uncongested enough to get around easily. Milwaukee’s many neighborhoods have incredible charm, accommodating a variety of lifestyles, from high-rise apartments to small farms. Nestled along a magnificent bluff overlooking Lake Michigan, Milwaukee’s downtown is home to botanical gardens, lakefront museums, a theater district, the world champion Milwaukee Bucks, the Milwaukee Brewers, bustling nightlife, and award-winning restaurants. The lake and its harbors are skirted by scenic parklands and provide first-class opportunities for recreation, including hiking, cycling, boating, and more. A recent study ranked Milwaukee as the 15th most walkable of the 50 largest US cities. Milwaukee has all the advantages of a large, vibrant city but without the stress or cost.
