Donald Saelinger ‘68 started PFPG in 1975 as a solo Internist and Gastroenterologist in Northern Kentucky, currently a community with a population of 700,000 residents in the Greater Cincinnati metropolitan service area. He founded and led the physician group (PFPG) for 35 years. He expanded the group to 90 physicians (multispecialty, 60% primary care) working in 16 sites in Northern Kentucky. Additionally, the group owned an imaging center (X-ray, CT, MRI capability), a Diabetes and Endocrinology Center, a full-service laboratory, physical therapy facilities, a sleep lab, and a large surgicenter. PFPG was the largest multispecialty independent physician group in the Cincinnati metropolitan service area until I sold it to St. Elizabeth Hospital in 2009. He subsequently retired from the organization in Jan of 2010. PFPG and its survivor, St. Elizabeth Physicians, was the highest performing medical group in the region from a quality perspective, as reflected by three of the region’s four major health plans. Additionally, it was a financially successful organization. PFPG joined with St. Elizabeth in 2009 to form the basis for an integrated delivery system in Northern Kentucky called St. Elizabeth Healthcare. After leaving St Elizabeth Healthcare and St Elizabeth Physicians, he became involved in various healthcare business consulting roles. He has also been involved with multiple locum tenens positions in Gastroenterology, as listed above. From 2014 to 2018, he was employed as GI section chief and Medical Subspecialty division chief at Straub Medical Center and Hawaii Pacific Health in Honolulu, Hawaii, and have recently returned to locum tenens roles in Gastroenterology and healthcare business consulting.
