The Intensivist Group is growing in St. Louis!

The Intensivist Group is excited to announce a new partnership with a large tertiary care center in the St. Louis metropolitan area. This will be our third Critical Care program in the area and we couldn't be more excited!

We are seeking experienced, skilled and dedicated Critical Care Advanced Practice Providers to join our team.

The Intensivist Group, a physician established and physician led group, is celebrating 16 years as a leading national provider of high quality and efficient critical care services to community hospitals. We improve patient care, patient, nursing, physician satisfaction, and quality outcomes while reducing hospital costs and risk. Our model is designed to challenge the status quo and transform the way Critical Care is provided, focusing on improving the lives of patients while creating value for our hospital partners.

Our model is designed to ensure that the Intensivist teams have the time and resources needed to deliver compassionate care that drives improved outcomes within a culture that promotes physician autonomy, mastery and purpose.
