The most meaningful health care awards are those that come from patients. ApolloMD congratulates our own Jesse Ellsworth, MD, an emergency medicine physician at our partner Novant Kernersville Medical Center in Kernersville, NC.

The 2023 report marks the 11th anniversary of the Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade assessment, and ApolloMD applauds our hospital partners earning the A-level score for excellence in patient safety.

Applications are now being accepted for ApolloMD’s 2023 Emergency Medicine Scholarship for Residents.

Now in its sixth year, the scholarship supports medical residents who are pursuing a career in emergency medicine. It reflects ApolloMD’s commitment to support resident physicians who are eager to pursue their passion for emergency medicine and high-quality, patient-centered healthcare.

Our robust ApolloMD growth calls for the extension of clinical leadership roles to champion our dynamic teams. To answer that call, we introduce a team of Regional Vice Presidents that are clinical leaders managing a roster of facilities while supporting company operations in other areas. These leaders will work closely with the Regional and Divisional Presidents, and the operations support assigned to the geographic region.

As ApolloMD continues expansion of our hospital medicine service line, we also announce the appointment of two hospital medicine leaders collaborating on the management and support of our teams. Dr. John Sullivan, Chief Medical Officer, and Dr. Ashley Varner, National Medical Director of Hospital Medicine, assume these new roles, combining their experience and expertise into a dynamic partnership for serving ApolloMD hospitalists.

The last couple of years presented challenges for everyone, spotlighting strengths and teaching us valuable lessons about personal and professional growth. At ApolloMD, we focus on building support systems to enhance the wellness, safety, and research opportunities for our clinicians as well as for all those in the industry. In alignment with that focus, we expanded our outreach efforts by donating funds to nonprofits championing these areas — Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes’ Foundation, the Emergency Medicine Foundation, and the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine Foundation –mirroring our vision statement: “Healthy Clinicians. Healthy Patients. Healthy Communities.”

The 2022 ApolloMD Leadership Conference held an awards ceremony where we recognized the dedication and excellence of various clinicians. These team members are applauded by their colleagues as they receive accolades such as Medical Director of the Year and Lead APC of the Year.
