About NAPR
The National Association of Physician Recruiters (NAPR) is a leading professional organization dedicated to promoting sound business practices, transparency, and ethical standards across the healthcare provider recruitment industry. Its board comprises influential leaders from the nation’s top healthcare staffing and recruiting agencies, helping to shape industry-wide best practices and advocate for policies that strengthen the integrity and impact of medical recruiting. Mike’s appointment to the board is a recognition of his professional expertise and commitment to ethical recruiting practices, and a clear signal that Fusion Healthcare Staffing will continue to shape the future of physician and advanced practice provider recruitment nationally.
Bringing Executive-Level Search Expertise to Our Clients
In his role as SVP of Recruiting for our permanent placement division, Mike
leads provider outreach and has been central in shaping our proprietary
screening process, which focuses on building a holistic candidate profile
across skills, culture, and lifestyle factors. This recruitment approach
ensures a strong fit between candidates and job opportunities, driving
higher provider and client satisfaction than traditional transactional
recruitment agency models, all while delivering industry-leading speed to
placement. Fusion’s retained search offering is purpose-built for healthcare
organizations seeking executive-style physician and advanced practice
provider recruitment services, with a national scale and reach.
Whether your organization is seeking a board-certified OBGYN for a private
practice, a CRNA for a critical access hospital, or to build out a team of
dermatology nurse practitioners to expand capacity in a high-demand market,
Fusion delivers access to talent at a scale that other agencies just can’t
match, with the hands-on service and precision of a boutique search partner.
Fusion’s team is deeply experienced in matching physicians and advanced
practice providers (APPs) including physician assistants, nurse
practitioners, and CRNAs, with mission-aligned healthcare employers across
the country.
Locum Tenens and Permanent Placement: A Complete Workforce Solution
Our permanent placement offering is a strong complement to Fusion’s national locum tenens staffing services. As a top locum tenens agency, Fusion helps clients navigate short-term coverage gaps, seasonal surges, and growth-related provider demand with speed and precision. Combined, our locum tenens staffing and healthcare recruiting services offer our clients end-to-end talent solutions that few in the industry can match. Fusion’s combined talent solutions cover a broad range of specialties, including:
- Obstetrics and Gynecology (OBGYN)
- Family Medicine

- Radiology
- Dermatology
- Otolaryngology
- Otolaryngology
- Gastroenterology
- Anesthesiology
- General Surgery
- …and many more!
The result? A single staffing partner who understands your business, your market, and your workforce strategy, whether you need long-term hires or short-term support. By offering both permanent placement and locum tenens staffing for the physician and APP markets under one roof, Fusion can deliver greater value for our clients and simplify the often-complex healthcare staffing process, making us a stronger strategic partner to organizations managing physician shortages, service line expansion, or care model transformation.
National Recognition and Industry Impact

Healthcare Staffing’s leadership in the healthcare recruiting space and
continues a long tradition of industry recognition and accolades for our
company.

by Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA), reflecting both our rapid growth and
