Nurturing the health of our community
Provider Opportunities
Because we are part of a mission-driven, faith-based nonprofit organization, what distinguishes us even more than size of our network is our daily dedication to nurturing the health of the communities we serve.
Centura Health Physician Group is one of the largest multi-specialty physician groups in the region and serves as a cornerstone of the Centura Health network of care. With more than 130 physician practices and over 700 providers, we're connecting consumers to state-of-the-art technology, clinical resources and vast professional expertise to keep them healthier.
At Centura Health Physician Group, we combine the best tools, resources and minds with quality, compassion and service. Although our over 700 providers differ in their expertise, they share a care philosophy that centers on keeping patients healthier by treating the whole person rather than a single illness or injury. Our approach to care not only nurtures the health of those in our community, but also increases value for the patients we serve.
