Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Diversity, equity, and inclusion are a part of our identity and our strength. We foster a culture in which employees trust that they are represented, that their voices will be heard, and that their work will be valued.

Why? Because we know that diverse teams thrive in an inclusive environment—and those same conditions improve professional performance and personal satisfaction, and instill in us a shared sense of purpose.

Ensuring all steps of our strategy are driven by data and insights—this includes the development of a dashboard to track our progress

“Increased diversity in medicine with more Black doctors means more lives are saved — and the racial health gap shrinks.”

“Research shows that patient-provider concordance improves the use of health care and less delay in seeking care. This is very important in our underserved communities of color.”

“Excellent health and wellness in our population [requires] health care providers who are trusted by their community. Our communities knowing there is strong Black representation in health care systems like ours, trust the medical care we deliver and accept health advice much easier with less inhibition in the process.”

“PAGNY is committed to being an equal opportunity employer with a philosophy of inclusion. As an organization, they strive for excellence in patient care, provide a supportive environment for employees and value their work-life balance.”

“I feel that I can use my leadership to improve health outcomes and impact positive change in our community.”
