Physicians

Our medical staff, our partners in quality healthcare

At Northwest Community Hospital (NCH), we're proud to work with so many dedicated physicians: both those who are in independent practice and those employed by NCH. In fact, our medical staff totals over 1,000 physicians.

Affinity Healthcare is now a division of Northwest Community Healthcare, providing a platform to position and grow Northwest Community as an integrated healthcare delivery system, and creating more jobs for doctors. NCH will collaborate with physicians to design this new model of coordinated care focused on meeting patients' needs for quality, efficiency, convenience and service.

As one of only 6 percent of hospitals nationwide that have earned Magnet^® status for nursing excellence, NCH's physician recruiting team attracts and retains the best clinical staff from all disciplines. In fact, we have top-notch specialists in areas such as cancer treatment, neurointerventional surgery, interventional radiology and advanced gastroenterology medicine, to name a few.

Providing facilities and technology to meet your needs

We care about you and your patients. That's why we continue to expand and improve our facilities and provide you with the latest in advanced technology to meet today's changing needs. Recent additions to our facilities include three new operating rooms (allowing us to provide an Urgent Room available at all times to accommodate emergencies), a new GI Interventional Procedure room, the renovated Cardiac Diagnostics suite, and the South Pavilion patient care addition that opened in May 2010.
