With this consolidation, CCP will continue to remain the largest, independent multispecialty medical group, now with over 1800 employees, more than 400 practitioners, and more than 70 practices across the region.

The consolidation expands access for patients and delivers a greater array of services. CCP will now offer over 30 different specialties, including: internal medicine, family medicine, pediatrics, developmental pediatrics, urgent care, medical imaging, audiology, behavioral health, bariatric medicine, dermatology, diabetes education, endocrinology, general surgery, hematology, interventional radiology, medical nutrition therapy, medical oncology, OB/GYN, occupational medicine, adult and pediatric neurology, nephrology, physical therapy, plastic surgery, podiatry, pulmonary and sleep medicine, radiation oncology, sports medicine, urology, vascular surgery, lab, and wellness services.

Joan Regan Hayner, CMPE, as the Chief Operating Officer, along with the strong combined management team, will use her expertise and skills to execute this collaboration to improve the patient and practitioner experience in a complex healthcare environment.”
