The South Bend Clinic
Company Overview
Letting Doctors Be Doctors for 100 Years
The South Bend Clinic is looking for a few good doctors. Actually a few great doctors. Practicing physicians who want more out of their careers than may currently be the case, and who desire the opportunity to grow a practice in a supportive and dynamic environment. We have been letting doctors be doctors for 100 years. As a physician-owned and led, multi-specialty group, we are 125 providers strong and growing. Our business model gives doctors the best of all possible worlds: autonomy and control of their own practices plus the management support and sophistication to provide the business security of a large organization while minimizing administrative hassles. We also provide a richly collaborative environment where primary and subspecialty physicians work together to deliver an exceptionally high level of integrated and coordinated patient care.
We are in a mid-sized city with major universities and colleges, low cost of living and high quality of life, about 90min. from downtown Chicago and less than 1 hr to Lake Michigan beaches. A great place to live and work.
Company History
Even in 1916 the Mayo Clinic was an impressive health care facility. That's what Dr. Walter Baker, a South Bend surgeon, thought when he visited the nationally known Clinic. It was the first nonprofit group practice in the world, and doctors from a variety of medical specialties came together there to care for patients. They believed "the needs of the patient come first." So did Dr. Baker. In fact, he was so inspired by what he saw that when he returned to South Bend, he gathered six other specialists, and they formed the South Bend Clinic.
Since its inception, the Clinic has provided primary and specialized care to its patients. More important, it has remained committed to the high-quality, personalized care that Dr. Baker and his partners established so long ago. Today, more than 90 physicians in 10 different locations serve the Michiana community, providing a range and quality of health care that is second to none.
The South Bend Clinic was organized in 1916 and was located in downtown South Bend on Lafayette Street. The Clinic built and relocated to 211 North Eddy Street in 1964. A total of four facility expansions have occurred since the original construction. The recent three-story building addition architecturally integrated with the existing building, resulted in a total space of 200,000 square feet.
The South Bend Clinic's expansion created new jobs for more than 110 staff of health care and support workers, including the addition of 10 new physicians on the main medical campus.
