    Recruitment Trends Shaping the Future of Cardiology

    Featuring Dr. Connor Healey of Capital Cardiology Associates | Hosted by Michelle Wimberly, Director of Physician Recruitment and Retention at CVL  In this episode of In Circulation, Michelle Wimberly and Dr. Connor Healey break down the recruitment trends shaping the future of cardiology and what today’s physicians need to know as the job market grows more competitive.  They discuss what’s driving increased demand for cardiologists, how physician priorities are shifting, and why timing, transparency, autonomy, and long-term career growth matter more than ever. The conversation offers practical guidance for fellows and practicing cardiologists evaluating opportunities in private practice, hospital-based models, and physician-led platforms.  In this episode, they cover:  What’s fueling today’s cardiology recruitment shortage  How fellows should think about timing and career planning  What candidates are prioritizing beyond compensation  Key differences between hospital-based and private practice models  Why ASC/OBL access, imaging, and operational support matter  What to expect from cardiology recruitment in 2026 and beyond  A must-listen for fellows, practicing cardiologists, and leaders planning for the next phase of cardiovascular care.

    Coronary CTA with Plaque Analysis/FFR and the Role of AI in Shaping Cardiovascular Practice

    Featuring Dr. Lance Sullenberger of Capital Cardiology Associates & Dr. Veronica Covalesky of Cardiovascular Consultants of Philadelphia | Hosted by Jude Hebert, VP of Clinical Programs at CVL In this episode of In Circulation, we explore how advanced imaging and artificial intelligence are redefining the way cardiovascular disease is diagnosed, managed, and prevented. Coronary CTA with plaque analysis and fractional flow reserve (FFR) is providing physicians with an unprecedented look into plaque burden, composition, and risk—while AI is rapidly enhancing interpretation accuracy and accelerating treatment decisions. Dr. Veronica Covalesky and Dr. Lance Sullenberger share real-world insights from their practices on how CTA and AI are improving clinical precision, patient engagement, and value-based outcomes. They discuss the evolution of CT angiography, how AI is changing the game for cardiologists, and what’s next as these tools become integral to everyday cardiovascular care. Dr. Covalesky, Dr. Sullenberger, and Jude explore: How coronary CTA with plaque analysis and FFR enhances diagnostic accuracy and clinical decision-making The role of AI in identifying high-risk plaque and improving long-term patient outcomes The challenges and opportunities of integrating AI into cardiovascular imaging workflows How CTA and AI support value-based care by preventing unnecessary procedures and enabling targeted treatment Predictions for how AI will continue to transform cardiovascular practice over the next decade Whether you’re a clinician already using advanced imaging or exploring how AI can elevate patient care, this episode offers forward-looking insights into the future of cardiovascular diagnostics and practice innovation.

    Integrating ASCs and OBLs into Cardiovascular Practice Models

    Featuring Dr. Mubbasher Syed of First Coast Cardiovascular Institute | Hosted by Kristen Richards, VP of Ambulatory Care at CVL In this premiere episode of In Circulation, we explore how leading cardiovascular practices are leveraging ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) and office-based labs (OBLs) to expand access, improve outcomes, and deliver value-based care. Dr. Mubbasher Syed shares real-world insights from his experience at First Coast Cardiovascular Institute, where he helped pioneer OBL adoption and is now preparing to launch a new ASC. He discusses the impact of outpatient care models on patient experience, physician workflow, and cost efficiency—and how regulatory trends are shaping the future of cardiology delivery. Dr. Syed & Kristen explore: The difference between ASCs and OBLs—and when to use each modelHow outpatient settings enhance patient satisfaction and clinical controlRegulatory pressures and the shift toward ASC-based proceduresThe value of integrating ASCs into physician-led platforms like CVLAdvice for practices navigating outpatient migration Whether you're currently operating an OBL, considering an ASC, or planning for future expansion, this episode offers timely perspective and practical advice from the front lines of outpatient cardiovascular care.
