Company Information
Arc Health clinicians aim to understand the social, historical, environmental, structural, and political forces that impact health. In everyday clinical care, they address the social dimensions of health and illness, or the ‘upstream’ factors like poverty, the environment, education, housing, and the larger healthcare system.
Our clinicians work both in and outside of the clinical setting to advocate for patients and alleviate disparities. As a company, Arc Health pushes itself and our clinicians to engage with issues of social justice and equity in order to increase our understanding of the social determinants of health.
Company History
Our co-founder, Dr. Phuoc Le arrived in the U.S. as a refugee from Vietnam at the age of five. He personally experienced the effects of health inequality, leading him to dedicate his career to serving the most impoverished communities.
In 2014, Dr. Le co-founded the HEAL Initiative at UCSF, a global health delivery fellowship program that supports health care practitioners who make service to the poor their first career choice.
In 2018, he co-founded Arc Health, with the ambition to transform medical staffing into an industry focused on health equity and robust human resources for health in underserved communities.
In 2020, Arc Health announced a strategic combination with Pinnacle Emergency Medical Group and expanded its service offerings to include emergency medicine clinicians.
