A physician-led medical group

Our Medical Group brings together all of our employed providers into one comprehensive, multispecialty network serving residents of Kentucky, Indiana and neighboring states. Backed by our system of hospitals and led by experienced physicians who are distinguished in their fields, the group encompasses over 1,500 providers, including 800 physicians and more than 700 advanced practice clinicians. These professionals include primary care providers, as well as highly trained surgeons and specialists offering advanced treatments, technologies, and care.

While many of the Medical Group’s administrative functions are centralized, we recognize that healthcare is delivered on a very personal level. Therefore, the governing structure includes local leadership councils and operations staff in each of the system’s three regions to address each community’s unique needs. These councils work together to ensure that patients visiting one of our providers can expect the same quality care at each of our practices and in each of our hospitals – care that is appropriate, timely and centered on our valued patients.

About the Hospital

We are a 434-bed tertiary care facility. It is a major medical research and education center. Established in the early 1950’s, our facility is recognized for its excellence in heart care and cancer care, and the hospital’s Clinical Research Center conducts groundbreaking research in both fields as well as in several other disciplines.

We continue to lead in maternity care, having delivered nearly 150,000 babies. The hospital operates six outlying outpatient centers.

We have been distinguished three times as a Top Performer by The Joint Commission and has been named a Magnet® hospital for nursing excellence four times.

Locally, we are annually recognized as “Favorite Hospital” and “Favorite Place to Have a Baby” in the Readers’ Choice poll conducted by the Lexington Herald-Leader.

About the Community

Often called the “horse capital of the world,” Lexington provides many opportunities to learn about horses and watch horse racing, including the legendary Keeneland Racecourse, The Thoroughbred Center training facility, Kentucky Horse Park, and The Red Mile Harness Track, the second oldest horse racing track in the nation. Many retired Kentucky Derby champions live at Kentucky Horse Park and on horse farms in the surrounding areas.

The University of Kentucky has a large presence in Lexington, with its sports teams drawing fans from across the state to cheer on the Wildcats on game days. The city also is home to Transylvania University, Lexington Theological Seminary, and Bluegrass Community and Technical College, and is within a short drive of many other colleges and universities.

Kentucky is known worldwide for its bourbon whiskey, with five historic distilleries in the Lexington area and others within a short drive of the city. Several smaller, craft distilleries are scattered across the region, along with craft beer breweries and wineries, most of which offer tastings and tours.
