  • Foster a high-performance, accountable culture supporting staff engagement, growth, and exceptional patient care

Provider Relations & Medical Affairs

  • Ensure supervision designations for APPs and other staff are clearly established and current
  • Partner with medical leadership to identify clinical performance opportunities and support quality improvement initiatives
  • Support provider onboarding and clinic integration for newly recruited providers

Business Development & Strategic Growth
