Electrophysiologist

Job Description

The Division of Cardiovascular Diseases at William Osler Health System (Osler) continues to expand services and there is a need for an additional electrophysiologist starting in the Summer/Fall of 2026. Osler is applying for an interventional electrophysiology (EP) program to start in 2027 to become a Level 5 Regional Cardiac Centre and address unmet needs in arrhythmia care in this region. Expertise in complex ablations including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and premature ventricular contractions, is essential for this position, and we would encourage and welcome applications from mid career electrophysiologists. Experience with implantation of leadless devices, left bundle area pacing leads and subcutaneous ICDs is considered an asset.

Accountabilities: The successful candidate will participate in on-call arrhythmia services, device (pacemaker/ICD/CRT) implantations and catheter ablations including complex ablations. Until the start of the on-site interventional EP program in 2027, opportunities to perform catheter ablation outside of Osler will be explored. Outpatient specialized clinic time will be provided at Brampton Civic Hospital and Osler associated community-based outpatient cardiology practices. The position requires excellent interpersonal skills and communication skills in English. Additional languages are considered an asset as we serve a highly diverse population. Remuneration is fee-for-service as set by the OHIP Schedule of Benefits and Fees.

About the Program: It is a very exciting time for Osler’s cardiovascular program which has seen rapid expansion over the last several years, now with over 30 cardiologists providing hospital on-call service. Osler serves one of Canada’s largest catchment areas with one of the highest burden of cardiovascular disease. Osler’s cardiovascular program is currently a Level 4 Regional Cardiac Centre with one of the busiest catheterization labs in the province. Osler has a growing arrhythmia program including ICD and pacemaker implantation as well as rapidly developing structural heart disease, cardio-oncology, heart failure and cardiac research programs. The future vision of the cardiovascular program is to become a Level 7 Full Service Regional Cardiac Centre with on-site mechanical circulatory support, interventional EP, cardiac surgery and structural heart disease services as Osler transitions to an academic health centre.

Qualifications

The candidate must have a certificate of registration to practice from the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario and have a fellowship in Cardiology from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. The position requires excellent communication skills in English. Additional languages are considered an asset as we serve a highly diverse population.
