I work with Mike Dahlke from Physician Select. He recently recruited an orthopedic surgeon and an FP for me. An excellent recruiter, very professional and considerate. Excellent follow-up, one of the best recruiters I've ever worked with. Great candidates, exactly the type I am looking for. I am working with Physician Select right now on EP, Interventional Cardiology, and Neurology. I highly recommend them, and can't think of any areas where they need to improve.

Paul Winston completed a very critical search for my organization: that being, the recruitment of a Breast Surgeon to head up the development of a multi disciplinary Breast Center for our hospital. Besides the requisite training and experience important for this position, it was essential that the selected candidate have the value set and the personality to fit the culture of our organization. Paul did a superb job evaluating the opportunity and assessing our culture and he hit a homerun in identifying the candidate whom we successfully recruited.
Paul was extremely helpful during the recruitment process and he was always available to answer questions and discuss strategies for completing the process. He deftly handled all the technical aspects of the recruitment, from compensation negotiations to references and travel plans. He was knowledgeable, timely with his responses, and always pleasant and respectful.
Our new Breast Surgeon has been with us for a few years now, and has done a great job setting up the Breast Center; which due to her efforts, recently received national certification. She has fit in beautifully with our organization and is extremely well thought of and respected by all her physician colleagues and our staff.
With Paul's help and hard work we found a real gem.
Thank you.

Mike Dahlke has been the consummate professional in dealing with recruitment. He has analyzed the situations and when appropriate made suggestions. He has served as a sounding board to help us define the type of physician we are recruiting. This has facilitated the process and prevented us from wasting time evaluating the wrong candidates. I have no hesitancy in highly recommending Physician Select to anyone looking to add physicians to their practice.

Paul Winston knows the surgical space very well, especially in the orthopedic sector. I have introduced him to a number of surgeons who were looking to relocate and he has provided excellent follow-up and knowledge of the space. He is responsive and looks out for the people he works with. I would recommend surgeons consult with Paul as they contemplate a potential change in employment or just to get an overview of the current market climate.

I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Mike Dahlke in recruiting physicians for our multispecialty full-time faculty. He conducts himself in a highly professional manner, asks appropriate questions, listens to our needs and carefully screens potential candidates to assure a mutual interest. He then steps back and allows the process to evolve naturally, although always follows up and offers his assistance without hesitation. With Mike's help, we have hired two high-quality physicians in the last year and I look forward to working with Mike and Physician Select in the future.

I think that it would be fair to say that Paul Winston is one of the most knowledgeable of all the recruiters I have worked with and that he has excellent information about candidates and what they are looking for. That saves a lot of time for me and makes things work. He is also very easy to work with and follows up well, without being overly obtrusive about it. Paul also frequently comes up with excellent candidates for difficult to fill positions. We have contracts with almost 300 contingency firms, and I think Paul is one of the very best recruiters I work with.
Thanks for all your help!
