McLaren Health Care, a statewide health system with hospitals and multispecialty medical campuses throughout Michigan, has announced that Clarkston Medical Group (CMG) has joined the system. CMG is a regional network of primary and specialty care providers serving northern Oakland County and its surrounding communities.
“The Clarkston Medical providers and care staffs have earned and maintained the trust of thousands of families over its many years, and we are proud to bring them into the organization,” said Phil Incarnati, McLaren Health Care President and CEO. “Together, with our shared access and resources, we aim to further expand the availability of coordinated, patient-focused care while also ensuring patients continue to receive the same level of service they have come to expect and rely upon.”
The joining of the two organizations builds on a longstanding partnership, most notably through their shared work at the McLaren Clarkston medical campus since 2009. CMG, with 54 providers across 11 locations in Clarkston, Pontiac, and Bloomfield Hills, officially joined McLaren on Dec. 31.
Under the new organizational structure, CMG will continue to operate within the newly formed McLaren Community Based Primary Care Group, a subsidiary of the McLaren Medical Group, and retain its teams of clinical and support staffs.
The alliance will position each organization to better serve the large and growing patient population in Oakland County.
“For more than six decades, Clarkston Medical Group has been driven by our commitment to providing accessible, high-quality health care,” said Dr. Renny Abraham, Clarkston Medical Group CEO. “Joining McLaren will allow us to further that commitment with the addition of expanded resources, clinical collaborations, and partnerships that provide our patients with broader access to specialty care.”
Founded as a single office in 1961, Clarkston Medical has grown and expanded its service over the past several decades caring for tens of thousands of patients across northern Oakland County and surrounding communities.
