Hear what some of our existing team members are saying about working at AAH!

"Physicians, Clinical and non-clinical staff are all fantastic and make a great team. Patient centered, hard-working group with a culture of support and team work. During this time of Covid, Advocate did not reduce our PTO, allowed team members to carryover a larger amount into the next year and still gave yearly merit raises. We run very, very lean most of the time, but at least we did not lose those benefits" - Glassdoor

"Really foster a strong culture of inclusion, collaboration and communication" - Glassdoor
