Salvo Health has announced a partnership with Pinnacle GI Partners to expand care offerings for its patients in the Lansing and Detroit regions.
With a focus on leveraging cutting-edge technology, the partnership will empower providers at Pinnacle GI Partners to deliver comprehensive care to their patients living with metabolic or chronic GI conditions, which affect more than one in three people in the United States.
“We are pleased to bring this option to Pinnacle patients,” said Tom Dudley, CEO of Pinnacle GI. “Recognizing the shortage of gastroenterology physicians in the US, and the increasing time constraints they face in meeting a surge in demand, this partnership with Salvo will give extra care staff and capabilities to extend our GI’s ability to deliver the best in patient care.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Pinnacle,” said Jeffrey Glueck, the founder and CEO of Salvo Health. “We have long admired Pinnacle and their Chief Medical Officer Dr. Partha Nandi, who has been a leader in educating patients on evidence-based, integrative care options including nutrition, stress, exercise, and microbiome health. Pinnacle has long focused on innovation, and this partnership will leverage mobile technology and telehealth to enhance the quality and accessibility of ‘whole patient’ care.”
Under this partnership, patients will have access to a dedicated care team coordinated under the supervision of their Pinnacle physician. The care team generally includes a nurse, registered dietitian, and additional specialists to ensure personalized care and optimal outcomes, over the months that it can take to get chronic conditions under control.
