Hospital NIR Services
Vascular & Interventional Partners (VIP) is the only single-specialty Neurointerventional Radiology group in Arizona servicing both hospital and outpatient locations. We pride ourselves in providing the highest-level NIR care in the state of Arizona.
Our group provides an option for hospital Neurointerventional Radiology coverage in the greater Phoenix area. This includes short-term “locums” arrangements (less than 12 months duration), as well as long-term arrangements (more than 12 months).
Why Single-Specialty NIR?
- Many other NIR physicians practice as part of larger diagnostic radiology groups, performing NIR procedures in between diagnostic radiology readings. However, at ViP we believe that NIR is a unique and highly technical specialty, best served by physicians practicing exclusively NIR.
Why ViP?
- Our physicians are board-certified, high-level providers in the specialty of Neurointerventional Radiology. Having trained at some of the nation’s elite institutions and with over 60 years of combined NIR experience, our providers are able to perform the most challenging procedures in our field.
We believe quality of patient care is the foundation of everything we do. By selecting ViP as your provider of NIR services, you are making a choice to prioritize your patients and their health outcomes.

Short-Term Hospital Locums Coverage
- ViP’s short-term NIR staffing model is uniquely suited to benefit our hospital partners looking for coverage solutions less than 12 months duration. Rather than involving a locum company as ago-between, ViP contracts directly with hospital administration to create a custom coverage solution for you.
- Fast and Easy: Our team handles all licensing, credentialing, and other administrative tasks as soon as possible, minimizing the administrative burden on the hospital and expediting the process.
- Highest Quality: Our physicians are board-certified NIR physicians who have trained at some of the nation’s best NIR programs. Our doctors practice exclusively Neurointerventional Radiology, including the most complex and challenging procedures in the field.
- Lower, Transparent Fees: By cutting out the traditional locum company markup, we are able to decrease the overall cost of locum coverage for a hospital. All expenses related to malpractice, travel, and lodging are fully included in our fees, giving a more transparent view of long-term costs.
- Backup Coverage: Our pool of NIR highly qualified NIR physicians provides a wider coverage net than any single provider. In the event that any one NIR physician becomes unavailable due to unexpected circumstances, VIP has a pool of additional physicians available to provide coverage and avoid unwanted interruptions in patient care.
Long-Term Hospital Locums Coverage
- ViP is uniquely suited to provide long-term hospital NIR coverage for selected institutions. If you are in need of high-quality, permanent Neurointerventional Radiology coverage, we are happy to discuss if VIP is the right fit for your facility.
