About Foster Crown

“Business is just business. Good business is about fostering relationships. A great business is Foster Crown.”

Foster Crown is a boutique physician recruitment firm changing the face of healthcare, one physician placement at a time.

The company was built on a platform of multifaceted human intelligence gathering and although it is a boutique company in specialty focus and size, the make-up of its team includes diversity of gender, ethnicity, and generation ultimately enhancing the ability to effectively address the needs of all of its clients.

The Phenomenal Team

Foster Crown’s team’s expertise in research, due diligence, intel gathering, negotiating, and utilizing artificial intelligence has allowed Foster Crown to be the ‘best of the best’ in physician recruitment.

Also, the team at Foster Crown is always willing to provide unfettered guidance and education within the challenging realms of medical malpractice insurance, contract negotiations, and de novo / development of private practices, empowering each physician and client to make better, more informed decisions.

It also guides many recent graduates who are diving into the professional medical world, assisting them with any questions as they begin their careers.

A One-of-its-Kind Physician Recruitment Firm

Foster Crown treats its physicians like family; developing relationships and taking the time to learn about its candidates and their families lives as well as their plans, ultimately allows it to serve them better.

Physicians frequently encounter miscommunication and misinformation when dealing with typical recruitment firms. These are often large, multi-billion-dollar corporations, where it’s not only easy to feel left behind, but also where they are contacted by a myriad of recruiters and credentialing coordinators within the same company.

Integrating Technology-enabled Advancements

At Foster Crown, its technologically advanced and collaborative team alleviates this issue altogether, allowing clearer lines of communication. It knows which team member is assisting which physician at any moment in time, giving them its utmost attention.

While technology substantially aids in sourcing candidates, it cannot replace the insight that human interaction provides. Effectively combining these tools leads to a different level of physician recruitment.

A thorough comprehension of a client’s human capital needs allows them to source only the most skilled and viable providers. As the company continues to strengthen and grow over time, one goal remains steadfast: to continue to foster authentic relationships with everyone whom they work with and remain true to its name.

Creating a Value-added Impact

Since their inception, Foster Crown has had the pleasure to work with hundreds of hospitals, private practices, and physicians across the nation. Its physicians have diagnosed and treated thousands of patients in hospitals and outpatient centers, in both metro and rural areas, and now via remote treatment through telemedicine and teleradiology.

This gives them a national, if not global impact as a business. Just one radiologist can diagnose over 100 patients per day. This is staggering. Each of these patients has their own life and family. Important life-saving feats, adventures yet to come, and impacts to make throughout the world. It takes pride in this fact and its participation in this achievement.

Setting an Example

Foster Crown’s integrity in the industry, always aims to be an example to follow. Earning trust is a high hurdle to conquer, in any industry, but Foster Crown does everything it can to earn the trust from the very beginning.

Any relationship with Foster Crown can be entered into with the utmost confidence as it honors every word in its contract. Its constant pursuit of excellence inspired the crown in its company name, and this ambition has not wavered since it opened its doors in 2012. Everyone on its premises is treated with high regard.

Accelerating with the Changing Demographics

Over the past decade, Foster Crown has witnessed an increasing amount of capital that has been injected into the healthcare industry, with private equity funding contributing as a key source of growth, especially in the office-based lab and ambulatory surgical center arenas for surgical and vascular outpatient services.

According to recent studies, the number of healthcare acquisitions and de novo centers developed by private equity has more than tripled. This trend is increasingly evident in its current market. The healthcare industry is highly fragmented, and private equity is assisting to change this business model through consolidation.

Foster Crown has recognized this pattern, and partners with private equity groups in efforts to contribute to the development and advancement of quality healthcare (private equity-backed, but physician-led practices).

Growing with Leaps and Bounds

With Foster Crown’s growth and industry presence, it has caught the attention of numerous corporations, asking how a company of its size can accomplish all that it has. Several have made offers of acquisition, requests that the company is truly humbled by, but respectfully decline. Its exceptional team, attention to detail, advanced technology, and expertise continue to define the premier company it is today.
