Primary care physicians partner with hospitals groups for two practical reasons: It saves time and it reduces costs. When you no longer need to make hospital visits or coordinate treatment for hospital patients, overhead goes down and you have more time for office practice. It makes good sense to put specialists in charge of your hospital patients, but only if you can be sure those patients will receive the best possible care. That’s why we want you to know what sets Great Lakes Medicine apart.
“We believe that clear communication – with the patient, the primary care doctor, and the entire care team – is a critical factor in making patients comfortable and achieving optimal outcomes.”
Our hospitalists have special training in acute care and years of hospital practice experience. They are all well-qualified, dedicated and compassionate, and they have another qualification we consider very important. They are skilled communicators. We believe that clear communication – with the patient, the primary care doctor, and the entire care team – is a critical factor in making patients comfortable and achieving optimal outcomes.
