PHYSICIANS History and Current Physicians
About Our GroupOur History
Middle Tennessee Emergency Physicians was established in 1971 and originally provided staffing service to Baptist Hospital which is currently St. Thomas Midtown Hospital. After 10 years the group had grown and began staffing Middle Tennessee Medical Center. This hospital is currently St. Thomas Rutherford. In October 2010, MTMC closed and the new St. Thomas Hospital was opened. In 2019, MTEP took on the additional responsibility of providing emergency medical services to St. Thomas West and four regional St. Thomas hospitals. As such, MTEP is now the sole provider of emergency medical services for St. Thomas Health in middle Tennessee.
