I have served Native American populations for most of my emergency medicine career. Working with these communities has been one of the most rewarding aspects of my life. I am very excited to work with Pinnacle, a group whose purpose is to provide the best quality care to these patients. You can not find a better or more devoted group of physicians to work alongside.

We are so grateful to have the opportunity to partner with like minded clinicians and with hospitals serving primarily indigenous patients with the hopes that our collective efforts will turn the emergency departments we serve in to centers of excellence in emergency care.

The flexible schedules allow me to work at unique and incredible hospitals while keeping my full time job.

Staffing a rural ER is difficult, but letting patients down is not an option. I turn to Pinnacle to provide reliable, caring, compassionate care to my patient population. With Pinnacle I can trust that the care provided will be up to date, efficient and display their abilities as highly trained, board certified ER physicians.

The successful bootstrapping of medical care in these settings has offered some of the more rewarding experiences I've had in medicine. Pinnacle has offered me the opportunity to practice at a variety of IHS sites without the baggage of extraneous influences. They're Native owned and physician led, and have had my interests at heart because they work shifts alongside me.

I have had great experiences working with PEMG doctors. They have all been extremely knowledgeable, friendly and care greatly about their patients. Our entire ED staff really enjoy working with them and hope to see them more in the future!

Jordan Haley, Charge Nurse, Emergency Department, Northern Navajo Medical Center

Pinnacle provided me the ability to work at a variety of IHS sites with a range of acuity and volume. I feel better knowing that the company is physician owned. They have also worked closely with me to schedule shifts seamlessly with my other commitments.

Everybody loves when the Pinnacle crew is working. They're well trained, always on time, always ready to work, and their positive energy elevates the whole team.
