Practicing Database

Practicing Database

This database pioneered the development of "ties." Ties are the links that a physician has to a specific region or community -- whether through family, personal history, or professional training. Our research shows that physicians are 84% more likely to be interested in an opportunity that is located in a place where the physician has a historic tie. Our system allows you to focus your searches on the best target audience of physicians, giving you the best results possible in the most efficient way.

Types of ties that are used include:

  • Current addresses
  • Historic addresses
  • Place of birth
  • State license history
  • Medical School training history
  • Residency & Fellowship training history
  • and others

At PracticeMatch, we do not want our clients to simply find "skills" with their physician candidates. We want to help our clients recruit the entire physician, creating an atmosphere from the beginning that will help to raise the likelihood of retention. Our clients recruit physicians who know and love the community as well as the workplace!

Success Story

"As the Director of Physician Recruitment for one of the nation’s largest health care systems, I am constantly searching for the best tools to facilitate success for our recruiting campaigns. I consider two things, cost and performance. Over the past 8 years of using PracticeMatch, I have found that there is no comparison with their line of physician recruiting products. Simply stated they have the largest and most reliable physician database I have found. Their integrated data tracking program provides a detailed physician information system which allows me to efficiently track all communications I make with physicians – ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks. It also lets me post directly to their Career Center, allowing me to and get our opportunities out there for free. The ongoing client support is exemplary - Education, training, and technical support were a pleasant surprise. They are always making sure that I understood exactly how everything worked and immediately solving any problems that I encountered, even if it was something that didn’t even involve their products. They quickly became an asset to our team. PracticeMatch has and continues to lead our profession by providing revisions or new programs to meet the changing demand of physician recruitment. The small expense of being a PracticeMatch client is far exceeded by the benefits of recruiting a doctor. Your new physician will not only meet the medical needs of your community but also generate new revenue for your facility. PracticeMatch pays for itself. When I first looked into PracticeMatch, I thought “How can I afford to use this?” But now, I think “How can I afford not to?” If you need physicians, I strongly recommend PracticeMatch, without any reservation! We successfully use it everyday."
