About the Team
Located in the heart of West Virginia's Eastern Panhandle, the Martinsburg Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) sits on 175 acres in historic Berkeley County. Serving a diverse area of more than 70,000 Veterans across West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania, the center is part of the VA Capitol Health Care Network (VISN 5). The facility offers a comprehensive range of services, from internal medicine and ambulatory surgery to mental health and rehabilitation medicine. Our mission is to honor America's Veterans as heroes by providing the highest quality health care through an integrated primary care concept, where each veteran is assigned to a dedicated team of providers who follow their care from inpatient to outpatient settings.

Your expertise will support various functions of non-invasive cardiology, ranging from comprehensive cardiac services and stress echocardiograms to TEE and diagnostic cardiac catheterizations.
