ABOUT US
We are a group of residency trained board certified emergency medicine physicians. We enjoy the opportunities that Las Vegas offers with everything from outdoor entertainment to the nightlife. We have a very cohesive group of ED physicians that enjoy working together and leading the community in emergency medicine quality. We are small and innovative enough that we do not let anything stand in our way to changes that will make us more efficient, improve our quality, or decrease our risk.
