Meet the organization: Evansville Surgery Center Associates is the city's first freestanding multispecialty outpatient surgery center. The surgery center was developed in 1984 by a small group of local physicians, and today the medical staff has grown to 172 physicians representing a variety of specialties. The facility has a strong community and sense of family, and annual turnover was less than 5 percent in 2014.
Added benefits: ESC Associates offers employees access to on-site childcare for children between six weeks old and kindergarten, an employee assistance program, a fitness center and free flu vaccines. ESC contracts with a vendor to provide its comprehensive and free wellness screening program, and employees who participate in the program are rewarded with monetary incentives. A wellness nurse can be seen bi-weekly on-site to assist employees with diet and fitness plans and overall wellness questions.
