At Memorial Hospital of Converse County, you'll join a collegial team of specialists who value collaboration over competition. Your primary working relationship will be with Dr. Posley, a spine specialist who divides his time between Cheyenne and Denver. Rather than the hierarchical structure common in many practices, you'll develop a true partnership—maintaining the clinic's presence when he's away while benefiting from his expertise and mentorship when cases require specialized intervention.
Dr. Hammond, the pain management specialist with family roots in Cheyenne, offers another valuable collaborative relationship. His local connections provide both professional support and potential insights into the community you'll be serving. Unlike fragmented care models where orthopedics and pain management operate in separate silos, this integrated approach allows for seamless patient transitions between services when needed.
The existing team also maintains professional relationships with Premier Bone and Joint, including newer ortho-spine surgeon Dr. de Pompio, who has demonstrated a commitment to working with Memorial Hospital. These connections create natural referral pathways for patients requiring services beyond your scope of practice, ensuring continuity of care without unnecessary barriers.
You'll find that the practice culture emphasizes both independence and teamwork—providers maintain their clinical autonomy while knowing colleagues are readily available for consultation and support. This balance creates an environment where you can grow professionally while avoiding the isolation sometimes associated with satellite clinics.
