Our Hospitalist team is comprised of more than 25 physicians with dedicated nocturnists, and 20+ APPs who work closely in geographically located multi-disciplinary teams. Hospitalists are employed by the Houston Methodist Physician Organization (PO) as part of a large multi-specialty group. The leader will work closely with PO Admin support, APP leadership, and the CMO/CQO to be accountable for delivering unparalleled clinical and quality outcomes for the Hospitalist teams while focusing on growth and innovations.
