Morgan Consulting Resources has been retained by Delphi Healthcare Partners to conduct a national search for the Vice President of Operations for the Central Region.

Ideally, this position will be based in St. Louis, Kansas City or Memphis but other locations in the Midwest will be considered.
About the Company:
Based in North Carolina, Delphi Healthcare Partners is a contract physician staffing and management company, formed in response to an evolving physician practice environment in which many private physicians no longer wish to admit and follow patients in the hospital and specialty physicians no longer want to provide ED on-call backup coverage. The combination of these two physician practice style changes has created a need for innovative solutions to both ambulatory and hospital-based patient care services. Delphi consists of senior staff members and support staff with extensive practice management and recruitment experience in a broad spectrum of specialties and settings including Anesthesiology, OB/Gyn, Pediatrics, Hospitalists, Intensivists, Orthopedics, Emergency Medicine, General Surgery and others.
