Dear fellow doctor,
As an experienced clinician and long standing leader at Icon Group, I have seen first-hand the outstanding capabilities of this international company. With a proven track record and doctor-led operations, Icon continues to be an integral and influential part of the Australian healthcare landscape, with a growing overseas presence.
With leading industry partnerships, access to pioneering clinicians and dedicated practice management functions, Icon offers a flexible, robust and supportive environment for practitioners.
Establishing yourself as a sole practitioner takes significant time and financial commitment.
The support we provide enables doctors to access the services they need without the stress of owning everything independently. Our practice management offering includes centralised clinical and research teams, secretarial support, business development, marketing, billing and IT functions. This comprehensive offering allows doctors to prioritise their patients and maintain a full and rewarding private practice.
I look forward to speaking with you further on what Icon can offer and how we can best support your practice.
Kind regards,
CLINICAL LEADERSHIP HAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE BACKBONE OF ICON. OUR EXPERIENCED CLINICIANS AND LEADING GLOBAL NETWORK OF HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS ARE THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND OUR SUCCESS, OUR MISSION, AND OUR STRATEGIC DIRECTION. TODAY, ICON SEES OVER THREE MILLION PATIENT INTERACTIONS ANNUALLY AND WILL CONTINUE TO REACH MORE PATIENTS IN THE COMING YEARS.”
