Cardiothoracic Surgeon – Join the Mission at CHRISTUS St. Frances Cabrini Hospital About Us

At CHRISTUS St. Frances Cabrini Hospital, we are proud to be a leading acute‑care regional referral center, delivering world‑class heart and lung surgery services in the heart of Louisiana. Our hospital is part of the ®Christus Health system, committed to compassionate, high‑quality care. We combine cutting‑edge technology, a supportive team‑oriented culture, and a mission‑driven environment that values both professional excellence and personal fulfillment.

Why this role is exceptional

  • Lead and grow a dynamic cardiothoracic surgical program with real impact — you’ll perform complex procedures including coronary bypass, valve repair / replacement, thoracic surgeries and more.
  • Join a collaborative multidisciplinary team — cardiology, vascular, anesthesia, thoracic surgery, ICU and more.
  • Enjoy the benefits of working in a not‑for‑profit, faith‑based organization : mission‑driven culture, strong support systems, and a focus on both patient care and professional growth.
  • Benefit from an attractive compensation and incentive package (competitive salary, signing bonus, generous benefits) — aligning with the kinds of offers recently seen for similar roles at CHRISTUS.
  • Make a meaningful difference in a community‐focused hospital that offers excellent quality of life, balanced workload, and opportunities for leadership and innovation.

What we’re looking for

  • MD or DO degree with completed cardiothoracic surgery training (ACGME or equivalent).
  • Board‑certified or board‑eligible in cardiothoracic surgery.
  • Active (or eligible) Louisiana medical license.
  • Proven experience in adult cardiac and thoracic surgical procedures (open and minimally invasive / robotic techniques a plus).
  • Strong interpersonal and leadership skills : ability to work well in a team, mentor staff, engage in quality improvement initiatives.
  • Alignment with our mission and values : compassionate, patient‑centric, collaborative.
  • Key Responsibilities

  • Perform a full range of cardiothoracic surgical procedures : coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), valve repair / replacement, thoracic surgery (including lung resections) and other advanced operations.
  • Collaborate closely with cardiology, vascular surgery, ICU, and other service lines to ensure seamless patient care from diagnosis through recovery.
  • Participate in call rotation and serve as a leader in the surgical program.
  • Contribute to hospital and system quality improvement efforts, metrics, and program development.
  • Mentor and collaborate with other physicians, residents / interns, and allied health professionals (if applicable).
  • Engage in service‑line growth, strategic planning, and ensure the highest standards of patient safety and outcomes.
  • What you’ll receive

  • Competitive base salary + productivity incentives / bonus structure.
  • Signing incentive.
  • Comprehensive benefits : health, dental, vision, malpractice / liability coverage, CME allowance, 403(b) plan, retirement match.
  • Supportive institutional culture with resources and infrastructure to succeed.
  • Opportunity for professional advancement and leadership roles within the service line and system.
  • Community & Location

    Alexandria, Louisiana offers a blend of Southern charm, affordability, and access to both vibrant city amenities and natural outdoor lifestyle. With proximity to the Red River and a short drive to New Orleans or Houston, you’ll find a strong guarantee of quality of life, community connection, and work‑life balance.
