AltaMed reviews

There are 2 main reason why I love working for AltaMed: 1) The people are great to work with. Everyone from executives to middle management treats each other with the same respect. There are no egos. Of course we are all trying to figure things out throughout this pandemic, and has been painful at times, but what health care organization isn’t? 2) The Mission! I feel like have a purpose and my work makes a difference in the community.

I've worked at universities and private medical groups where the margin is more important than mission, and there is no reinvestment of those dollars back into the community. AltaMed's mission of eliminating health disparities, while not easy, inspires me to continue fighting to improve primary care for underserved communities. As a physician leader, we are driving the strategic direction of this organization to expand the reach of our mission, while improving primary care for the communities we serve. We have great respect for our nurses and non-clinicians who are integral team members to help us live our mission. Our patient's needs and conditions are dire, given their social and clinical complexity, but this is why working here makes this that much more rewarding. As a state/country we cannot afford to keeping leaving impovershed communities behind.
