Another orthopedic powerhouse? Cedars-Sinai completes Kerlan Jobe, Santa Monica group affiliations

Los Angeles-based Cedars-Sinai Health System finalized an agreement to affiliate with Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles and Santa Monica (Calif.) Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Group.

The entities entered into a letter of intent to jointly pursue advancement in orthopedics and sports medicine in late 2013. This agreement is the final step in the process. The affiliation expands the geographic footprint of each of the partners, and also expands opportunities for clinical trials and research.

Kerlan-Jobe and Santa Monica Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine Group will continue to see patients under their respective brands, however, their patients will have increased access to Cedars-Sinai when needed.
