Who we are: Gather Health is a collective of outreach partners, care partners, clinicians and, most importantly, patient partners who work together to reshape lives and communities. We bring hands-on social and medical care to our patients and work around their needs, both within our care facilities and in their homes. We work alongside local leaders to build communities and provide tailored care experiences that serve the seniors that live within them. When we Gather, we show love, compassion, community, and care.
Summary of the Primary Care Physician role: The older adults we serve experience challenges with social determinants of health and living, which impact their health. The Primary Care Physician will guide our patients to build their best lives according to their goals. They do this by providing a full spectrum of care while utilizing state-of-the-art technology and establishing trusted longitudinal care in our clinics and via telehealth. Working with other members of the care team, our "person-first" approach strives to create both individual and community wellness.
