About IMS · since 2022 · Fort Worth, TX

A boutique firm, built differently.

Founded by three industry leaders who watched the staffing model break from the inside, then built the one they wished existed — country-club-level concierge support, clinicians and facilities treated like family, and a team that makes sure you're happy, always.

Our mission

To transform medical staffing through exceptional support and tailored placements, by creating a family-oriented environment that promotes growth, satisfaction, and the highest standard of patient care.

§ 02 · What we stand for

Three principles. Zero exceptions.

Everything we do is built on three commitments, to clinicians, to facilities, and to the way we run the firm.

01

Dedicated support for clinicians.

Country-club-level concierge support. One recruiter for the life of your career — same name, same number. A family-oriented environment that doesn't pretend to be one.

  • One recruiter, never rotated
  • Licensing support, start to finish
  • Friday direct deposit, always
02

Exceptional service for facilities.

Long-term partnerships, not transactional placements. Three vetted candidates. The kind your care team asks to book again.

  • Three real candidates, not thirty
  • One account lead, same number
  • Response within one business day
03

Credentialing, handled.

Credentialing typically lands in under 60 days — and when a start can't wait, we can push emergency credentialing through in a few weeks.

  • Typically under 60 days
  • Emergency credentialing when timing is tight
  • Malpractice covered
§ 03 · The team

The people behind every placement.

Founders, leadership, and the recruiting team who personally manage every assignment IMS sends — real people who treat clinicians and facilities like family and pick up the phone every day of the week, weekends included.

By the numbers

Boutique by design.

A small team in one office in Fort Worth, working with facilities in 47 states. The numbers stay small on purpose — it's how we deliver country-club-level concierge support, treat every clinician and facility like family, and make sure you're happy, always.
