Our Partnership Model

Market focused: Healthcare is local. We’ve brought together longstanding, reputable practices to create a dominant platform for orthopedic excellence in the DMV Region. We’re building regional density in this market through vertical integration across the continuum of musculoskeletal care. As we look at other markets, we plan to partner with like-minded groups that have leading brands in their respective markets and strong cultures that fit with our philosophy of placing quality first.

Hear from Our Partners

  • “ At the Jordan-Young Institute, we have set a very high bar for ourselves and take pride in delivering care which is considered nationally and even internationally to be at the highest level. However, we are continually striving to improve our patient care and outcomes. Going into the future we feel that taking advantage of synergies with like-minded groups and institutions will allow us to add efficiencies, optimize delivery and allow physicians to focus on patient-centric medical care. We have had a professional relationship with Aligned Ortho and are pleased to now be joining them. Together, we can continue to build a vertically integrated musculoskeletal platform that is focused on quality outcomes and bringing value to healthcare. ” - Dr. Kevin Bonner, Jordan-Young Institute
