Summit CityMD is a physician-led, physician-owned, multi-state organization with 1,300+ providers, $1.16 billion in revenue and 7+ years of experience in commercial risk. Their 190+ locations include a comprehensive cancer center, high-acuity urgent care centers, and ambulatory surgery centers in the New Jersey-New York area.
