Wilderness Medical Staffing
Wilderness Medical Staffing is a locally owned and operated locum tenens corporation that has the experience and innovation to solve any staffing need. We are completely familiar with the areas that we send practitioners to because we have worked and lived in many of these areas ourselves. Because of this, we understand the unique difficulties that rural areas have in obtaining and keeping quality medical providers. We are able to thoroughly orient our practitioners to the particular site where they will be placed, which means they will be able to hit the ground running. Overall, we offer our clinic sites top-quality health care providers and our providers have the chance to live life adventurously, while feeling the satisfaction of truly making a difference in the health of rural communities.
