Our Culture

RISE: Respect Individuality. Support Equity.

The RISE Committee was created to break down the walls surrounding equity and racism in our organization and our communities. While we have always strived to be an inclusive organization with a diverse workforce, we recognize that, like all our community members, we can and need to improve.

Our mission is to cultivate and promote an environment of inclusion and equity.

Allied and Adjuvant are committed to creating an all-inclusive culture, which we will achieve by empowering each person in our organization to examine their mindset to become aware of how it affects behaviors. In spaces safe from judgment and discrimination, we aim to inspire transformative change that will positively impact our community. Together we will all RISE to create a brighter future!

This committee is a safe space for conversation and debate for everyone. Discussions focus on the acquisition of knowledge, open discussion on race and racism, and collaboration of ideas.

Communication and Collaboration

We work collaboratively across our physician practices and Home Office on best practices. As a group, we aim to leverage all of our available resources. We are at the forefront of technology and offer our employees robust collaboration tools and utilize a Microsoft 365 platform for telework capability and videoconferencing.

Professional Development and Training

Our company is committed to actively instilling a positive culture. In order to promote individual and organizational growth, we provide training opportunities including:

• Self-management for better outcomes
• Conflict Resolution
• Maintaining Healthy Boundaries
• Mindful and Stress Management Techniques
• Leadership Coaching and Development for Manager and Supervisors

CHIME: CHOOSING HEALTH INTERNALLY, MENTALLY, AND THROUGH EDUCATION

The Wellness Committee strives to educate employees and provide easy access to internal programming and education to help them make better lifestyle choices. Our committee encourages movement and provides the tools and resources that can help improve the employee’s overall well-being.

The Wellness Committee programs aim to motivate change in individual employee behavior by increasing people’s knowledge about health and wellness, influencing attitudes, or challenging beliefs about health. We encourage employees to take ‘baby steps’ toward change such as taking the stairs, parking further away form the entrance the building, and bringing a healthier lunch to work three times a week versus dining out.

Our programs recognize that groups at the worksite can provide social identity and support and should look to create and encourage these opportunities for group interaction. For example, offering work-based weight loss programs (individual or a team-based weight loss challenge), support groups for tobacco cessation, and walking clubs.

We encourage that leadership, policies, practices, and the physical work environment are supportive and conductive to health behavior change. We mandate a tobacco-free worksite, institute healthy vending machine policies, require healthy food choices in the cafeteria, and allow time for physical activity (such as walking groups) during the workday.

Providing Exceptional Care Since 2006

Before Allied Physicians Group was established, two independent, hospital-based pediatricians discussed their concerns about the future of healthcare. From their conversations and with the help of an attorney, a plan emerged to build a network of independent practices around the New York metropolitan area.

The physicians compiled a list of dream-team doctors, including Dr. Gary Mirkin, who served as CEO of Allied Physicians Group (formerly Allied Pediatrics of New York) for 11 years. He decided to get involved in the organization’s early formation with the persuasion of Dr. Gene Friedman, who knew virtually every pediatrician on Long Island.
