Description
Join CVMG— Clinical Cardiology
Full imaging interpretation, concierge care, elite patient population.
Cardiovascular Medical Group of Southern California
The Opportunity
If you are an accomplished Cardiologist with a foundation in internal medicine and a passion for concierge care and evidence-based health screening, this is a rare invitation to practice at an entirely new level.
The Cardiovascular Medical Group of Southern California (CVMG) is offering a select opportunity to a physician out of training or one who has already built a career and is ready to bring that expertise to one of the world’s most coveted locations, serving one of its most discerning patient populations.
We are not looking for someone to start a practice. We are looking for someone ready to join one.
Beverly Hills — The Setting
Our campus sits in the “Golden Triangle” of Beverly Hills, equidistant between Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and UCLA — two of the nation’s premier academic medical institutions. This is a community defined by sophistication, access, and a genuine commitment to health. Our patients are engaged, proactive, and deeply invested in advanced health care screening and cardiovascular wellness. They expect — and receive — the very best.
The Practice
CVMG is a fully integrated, subspecialty-rich cardiovascular center with expertise spanning every dimension of the field — general cardiology, advanced imaging, electrophysiology, preventive cardiology, women’s heart health, interventional consultation, and more. Our cardiologists hold academic appointments and trained at institutions including Harvard, Stanford, Mayo Clinic, UCLA, UCSF, Emory, and MIT. Many patient prefer comprehensive care in our location and an interest in internal medicine is desirable.
As a Cardiologist, you will serve as a consultant and or complete physician for your patients — managing the full spectrum of their cardiovascular and general medical needs, while drawing on the immediate support of in-house subspecialty colleagues across all disciplines. When your patients need advanced intervention or hospital-level care, world-class resources are down the hall or across the street at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and UCLA.
Our on-campus diagnostic capabilities are hospital-grade: PET and SPECT stress testing, pyrophosphate scans, MUGA scans, carotid ultrasound, world class CT coronary angiography, and a world-class CT Center of Excellence. You will have the ability to interpret the full range of cardiac imaging studies, supported by cutting-edge AI-assisted technology — bringing a level of diagnostic comprehensiveness rarely available outside a major academic center.
Concierge Medicine & Advanced Health Care Screening
Our concierge medicine program is a cornerstone of the practice. Our clientele is ideally suited for this model — they prioritize access, personalization, and proactive, evidence-based health management. There is strong demand for comprehensive cardiovascular risk assessment and advanced screening programs delivered with the rigor of an academic center and the attentiveness of a private practice.
As part of our team, you will offer patients a genuinely comprehensive screening experience — backed by on-site advanced imaging, immediate subspecialty consultation, and direct hospital affiliation with the Cedars-Sinai Smidt Heart Institute. This is not screening as a checkbox. It is screening as a discipline.

The Foundation has contributed to hundreds research studies and continues to train cardiology fellows from Cedars-Sinai, UCLA, and institutions across the country and abroad. Engagement in research is an opportunity, not an obligation — but for the right physician, it represents a meaningful way to contribute to the future of the field.
