About Emergency Medical Specialists
Since 1984, Emergency Medical Specialists (EMS) in Colorado Springs has been committed to serving the Southern Colorado community by providing the best emergency medical care possible.
From the very beginning, our mission has been to provide high quality, data-driven, patient-centered emergency medical care to our community by recruiting the best Emergency Physicians, Physician Assistants, and Nurse Practitioners to work at our facilities in and around Colorado Springs, CO. We are proud to be an independent, democratic group that is locally owned and managed right here in Colorado Springs.
EMS has continued to grow substantially since its founding. Today we are comprised of more than 100 emergency medical professionals serving our community at numerous top medical facilities in the region, including University of Colorado Health Memorial Central Hospital – the busiest emergency department in Southern Colorado and the only Level One Trauma Center in Southern Colorado.

Our Core Values begin with care
We are committed to providing patients with the best possible care in a safe and fair environment.
For us, this means care that is:
PATIENT-CENTERED
We provide care that is focused on the individual above all else. We are passionate about our work and are always committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for our patients. We recognize many patients come to us during one of hardest times of their lives, and we want to help them to the best of our ability. We always aim to listen and respond to patient needs and remember to treat the person, not just the illness.
Data-Driven
We strive to understand and use the latest data available to help provide objective and accurate information as it relates to the patient. Using a data-driven approach is another way we ensure patients get the state-of-the-art care they deserve.
Community
We are committed to serving the entire community in as many ways as possible. We strive to be a force for the betterment of our community not only by serving its emergency medical care needs with integrity and excellence but also by acting as a steward of community health for Southern Colorado.
Competitiveness
We search high and low to recruit, hire, and support the best emergency health practitioners to work at the top emergency care facilities in the area. We offer an aggressive and competitive compensation package and partner with other entities to help ensure our professionals are equipped for success.
