Our Vision

Achieve the healthiest population possible, leading the transformation of health care in our region and setting the standard for our nation.

The Department of Pediatrics at Children’s Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock (CHaD) and the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth (Geisel) is seeking a Section Chief of Pediatric Cardiology.

This individual will oversee and develop the clinical and academic missions of the Section, including its educational and research activities.

CHaD is the pediatric service of Dartmouth-Hitchcock (D-H), an integrated academic healthcare delivery system for northern New England, anchored in Lebanon, New Hampshire at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC).

CHaD maintains an inpatient pediatric unit with PICU and a level III NICU at DHMC and a comprehensive ambulatory specialty center at the D-H Clinic in Manchester, the largest city in the state.

A founding member of the Northern New England Regional Program in Pediatric Cardiology with Boston Children’s Hospital and the University of Vermont Children’s Hospital, the Section provides comprehensive care for infants, children and adolescents with cardiovascular conditions across the state of New Hampshire and eastern Vermont with faculty based both at DHMC and D-H Manchester.

It is also expanding an adult congenital heart program in conjunction with the D-H Heart & Vascular Center. 

Academic opportunities across Dartmouth’s campuses include world-class traditional biomedical research, global health initiatives, and renowned leadership in quality improvement, outcome, and healthcare delivery sciences at The Dartmouth Institute for Health Policy and Clinical Practice. 

The successful candidate will have demonstrated significant leadership, organizational and mentoring skills and a record of significant scholarly achievement.

This individual must be board certified in Pediatric Cardiology and qualify for academic appointment at the medical school at a rank commensurate with experience and academic portfolio. 

DHMC is recognized by US News & World Report as the Best Hospital in NH and is home to its only Level-1 trauma center, its only air ambulance service, the NCI-designated Norris Cotton Cancer Center, and over 50 graduate medical education programs. 

D-H provides a rare opportunity to combine high level academic medicine with a serene and stress-free living environment.

Lebanon is part of the Upper Connecticut River Valley, home to Dartmouth College and its abundant cultural and enrichment activities.

Greater Manchester is often ranked among the best small cities in the United States for quality of life.

With destinations like Boston, New York, Montreal, the seacoast and ski country within driving distance, this the ideal place to work where others play.
