Why are we growing?
For Hospitals and Physician Groups: MD coverage is critical to your organization. Salient MD will
provide quality physicians in a timely fashion when unforeseen coverage needs arise.
Most of our physicians have private practices or are completing their Residency/Fellowship training and
have simply chosen to provide additional coverage during their off time. Our physicians understandthe
importance of representing your hospital or medical practice with professionalism and a sense of
commitment.
Physicians in these specialties are available for coverage:
Emergency Medicine Urology
Hospitalist Orthopedic Surgery
Family Medicine Neurology
Med/Peds Neurosurgery
OB-GYN Dermatology
