Southwest Medical, part of Optum, is a multi-specialty group of Physicians, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistants at clinical locations including health care centers, urgent care clinics, convenient care centers and an outpatient surgery center. We run a systems-based practice, as manifested by actions that demonstrate an awareness of and responsiveness to the larger context and system of health care and the ability to effectively call on system resources to provide care that is of optimal value.
