An exciting opportunity currently exists for an enthusiastic Cardiology Heart Failure Fellow to join our Cardiology Department for a 12-month Fellowship position from February 2025.

About the department:

  • Assist (where applicable) in invasive diagnostic procedures including right heart studies and endomyocardial biopsies.
