Bringing on More Healthcare Providers for You

Tuesday, August 27, 2019 |

Bayhealth continues to make the hiring of new medical talent a high priority. Beginning several years ago, well in advance of the Bayhealth Sussex Campus opening, physician recruitment efforts were ramped up to bring even more highly-qualified providers to our area. This has allowed Bayhealth to deliver on our promise to improve healthcare access with greater numbers of primary care doctors and physicians in a variety of specialties to serve the growing population in central and southern Delaware.

Here’s an overview of our medical staff expansion from 2016 through today to better serve our communities:

  • 59 practitioners have been hired for patient care across Bayhealth campuses
    • 49 new physicians
    • 10 new advanced practice clinicians (physician assistants and nurse practitioners)
  • Among the nearly 50 doctors there’s someone to meet you and your family’s healthcare needs
    • 15 provide primary care, such as family or internal medicine
    • 13 are in emergency medicine
    • 21 are specialists, ranging from gastroenterology to oncology
  • New offerings for unique specialty care locally, including pediatric ENT and neurosurgery
