Mission
To provide extraordinary physician-led perioperative care.
Vision
Providence Anesthesiology Associates provides remarkable perioperative care which is safe, reliable, value-driven, evidence-based, and measurably of the highest quality. We strive to better the health of our community, decrease healthcare costs, and improve the patient experience, one patient at a time.
Core Values
We provide an unwavering service in all that we do and for everyone, we serve, with a strong commitment to each of our core values.
- Compassion – We genuinely care about our patients. We aim to optimize the patient experience through a patient-centered approach to medical care. With every patient, we pledge to provide comfort and ensure safety from start to finish.
- Clinical Excellence – We have a passion for excellence that drives our clinical care. Our clinicians are of the highest caliber; all are either board-certified or board-eligible. We’re able to provide uncompromising quality in all aspects of patient care by practicing in an evidence-based fashion, measuring our outcomes, and continuously striving to improve our end result.
- High-Reliability – In the highly complex perioperative environment where the risk of adverse events is high, we hold ourselves to the standards of all High-Reliability Organizations. In doing so, we foster a culture and track record of unsurpassed safety. We relentlessly measure and address patient risk and implement processes to drive the best possible outcomes—several-fold better than national benchmarks.
- Integrity – We maintain the highest standards of behavior and always do the right thing for our patients, our partners, and the communities we serve.
- Physician Leadership – We place tremendous value in our strong physician leadership, which guides us in every aspect of our clinical practice, leads our corporation, and manages our business.
- Autonomy and Independence – We’re an independent private practice group of physicians who take great pride in our unparalleled organizational and clinical excellence. We’re passionate about our belief that independent physician practices drive the highest levels of productivity, creativity, professionalism, and clinical excellence. Whenever we’re able, we’ll encourage and assist other practices in maintaining their autonomy.
- Strength Through Collaboration and Partnership – While we’re a strong, independent group, we recognize the benefits of forming partnerships and alliances and want to continue to grow by collaborating with other like-minded physicians, healthcare professionals, and healthcare systems in mutually beneficial relationships.
