To prospective teammates, I'm the medical director for Ascension Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc, Michigan. I have been a part of Sound Physicians for four years. I'm proud of the hospitalist practice we have built and welcome interest from physicians coming out of training or desiring a career change. I'd like to share more about it, specifically about our people, practice, and purpose , as you consider options: People * We are a closely knit, established team of 16 physicians and four advanced practice providers, with the support of a clinical performance nurse. * We are a diverse group. Providers who have trained and practiced in different states now call Michigan home. * We take pride in our relationship with the hospital and are involved in committees ranging from CHF to mortality.
