Leadership

Since formation in 1979, Scottsdale Emergency Associates has maintained a strong focus on emergency department and hospital leadership. We believe in collaborating with our hospital partners to achieve the mutual goal of excellence in patient care. As such, our physicians have held numerous medical staff leadership positions at Scottsdale Healthcare including Chair of the Department of Emergency Medicine and past presidencies of the Scottsdale Healthcare medical staff.

Extensive leadership development is one factor that has led to several of our physicians being named among Phoenix Magazine’s top doctors. Keen leadership allows for our physicians to advocate for our vision of excellence in emergency medicine, which is a benefit to patients and the community at large.
