Baptist Health Medical Group is expanding its orthopedic care.
Effective November 1, the Medical Group has acquired Louisville Orthopaedic Clinic, adding more than two dozen providers to its network.
Increased Service Offerings
The newly formed Baptist Health Louisville Orthopedic Clinic, along with Baptist Health Pain & Spine and Baptist Health Physical Therapy, offers a full range of services, from patient consultations for orthopedic conditions to helping individuals stay active, recover from injuries or chronic conditions, and manage pain.
The acquisition aims to help patients across Baptist Health’s service areas overcome their orthopedic injuries or conditions from start to finish, all under one umbrella.
“This expansion brings together some of the region’s most experienced orthopedic specialists under one coordinated system,” said Jonathan Velez, MD, President of Baptist Health Louisville. “Patients will benefit from a seamless experience supported by the full resources of Baptist Health.”
Baptist Health Louisville Orthopedic Clinic & Baptist Health Pain & Spine operates at two locations:
- 4130 Dutchmans Lane in Louisville, which includes multiple suites for patient care, orthopedic, pain management, neurosurgery, imaging, and physical therapy and occupational therapy services.
- 1425 State Street in New Albany, which houses orthopedic, pain management, neurosurgery and physical and occupational therapy services.
“Integrating Louisville Orthopaedic Clinic into Baptist Health Medical Group strengthens our ability to deliver comprehensive care across the region,” said Shelley Shaughnessy, Chief Operating Officer of Baptist Health Medical Group. “We’re proud to welcome this talented team and align their expertise with our mission to provide exceptional, connected care.”
Expanded Resources
Current patients of Louisville Orthopaedic Clinic will continue to see their physicians, but now those patients have access to the expanded resources and technology of Baptist Health’s network of hospitals, surgery centers, and physical therapy facilities.
“The clinic’s established physician team will remain in place, providing continuity of care while gaining access to Baptist Health’s broader network and technology,” said Isaac J. Myers II, MD, Chief Health Integration Officer of Baptist Health and President of Baptist Health Medical Group. “It’s the same expert care—enhanced with greater access to imaging, surgery, and rehabilitation resources all under one roof.”
Baptist Health Medical Group has grown rapidly over the years, now encompassing more than 1,800 providers offering care in 78 specialties.
