Testimonials

"Dr Ken Ellington and his associates with MedStream have done an excellent job at our hospital in transitioning from a traditional situation that had been in place for over three decades, to a contemporary, customer-oriented approach. They have helped us expand services and provide customer focused providers in terms of both the Anesthesiologists and CRNAs. MedStream has also helped us meet all regulatory requirements in providing services throughout the organization and thereby increased the number of surgeries performed here at the hospital. We couldn't be more pleased with the services or the people."

  CEO, Northern Hospital of Surry County

"I have personally worked with Dr. Ken Ellington, the principal partner in MedStream, for over 16 years and have only the highest regard for the quality of his work, as well as his effectiveness in improving operating room efficiency, turnover and financial performance.

"The bulk of my experience with Ken took place at Mission Hospitals, an 800-bed regional medical center, where I served as President and Chief Executive Officer and employed Ken as Medical Director for our operating rooms in 1999.

"Over a period of 4-5 years, Ken was successful in improving our operating room efficiency by close to 50%. During that timeframe, he helped increase the number of operating room cases in our inpatient and outpatient facilities from approximately 29,000 to 40,000.

"Ken was instrumental in providing physician and anesthesia leadership, as well as leadership to the nursing and other clinical staff in our facilities. He worked tirelessly to help build our surgical program in to arguably the most efficient and highest volume program in the state."
