Physician Founded. Physician Owned. Physician Led.
IES was created to be a safe haven for emergency medicine physician groups to allow physician leaders to create the best places to give and receive care. We have taken these principles and applied them to other physician specialties, creating a high-performing elite organizational culture.
A Movement, Not A Model.
We believe a core service we can provide our hospital partners is equipping the hospital with high-quality physician leaders. We focus on intrinsic character and offer continued opportunities to develop leadership skills. Our investment in physician leaders helps both the organizations we serve and our clinicians’ career satisfaction, creating a true culture of physician leadership.
