Our Mission
We keep independent practices in San Diego County thriving.
We exist so that local doctors will always have the autonomy, security, and expertise to control their medical practices and provide the best possible personalized patient care, right in the patients’ own communities. Our diverse medical group includes hundreds of the top primary care doctors and specialists throughout San Diego County – whether in independent practice, through employment, or one of our unique hybrid models. We are consistently recognized by the community as best-in-class.
We grow stronger year after year as the preferred choice for new physicians seeking autonomy and for established groups desiring greater success. We are a viable alternative to corporate medicine. We provide access to better insurance contracts and more patients, so our doctors earn greater reimbursement; innovative tools and technologies to continually enhance quality of care and patient satisfaction; and stability through the backing and resources of Sharp HealthCare.
We are boldly and continually creating new ways of enabling doctors to practice the best medicine possible, while assuring reasonable cost, high quality, and convenient access – the imperatives of modern health care.
