INDIANAPOLIS
– Jerome J. Cordova, MD, has joined Franciscan Physician Network Indiana Heart Physicians (IHP) as a hospitalist.
He is part of
the newly established Cardiovascular Hospitalist Program, which will team him with
interventional cardiologists to admit and consult on patients overnight.
Hospitalists specialize in the
care of patients in the hospital.
IHP created the hospitalist
program to make its cardiologists more available to Franciscan St. Francis Heart Center patients during day time hours. This approach
improves continuity of care for patients who have been admitted overnight.
Board-eligible
in internal medicine, Dr. Cordova completed an internal medicine residency at
the University of New Mexico-Albuquerque, where he also earned his medical
degree and undergraduate degree in chemical engineering.
He is a
member of the American Medical Association and American College of Physicians.
Indiana Heart Physicians has offices in Indianapolis, Franklin,
Greensburg,
Martinsville, Mooresville
and Shelbyville.
Franciscan Physician Network is a division of the Mishawaka, Ind.-based
Franciscan Alliance. To learn more about network primary and specialty care
