During fy 2017, pmc welcomed 28 physicians, two physician assistants, eight certified registered nurse anesthetists, and 12 nurse practitioners to the organization.

With the addition of these new physicians, pmc offers more than 400 services, including most specialties and many subspecialties. Pmc, as a proud member of the mayo clinic care network, forged a partnership which was the first of its kind in the area. This powerful tool extends mayo clinic's knowledge and expertise to physicians and providers interested in working together in the best interest of their patients. Pmc providers accessed mayo clinic resources, via an online point-of-care information system and electronic consulting process that connects physicians with mayo clinic specialists on questions of diagnosis, therapy or care management. The primary goal of the mayo clinic care network is to provide the benefits of mayo clinic knowledge and expertise close to home, decreasing the patient's need to travel outside the region for healthcare. In 2014, pmc completed a multi-million dollar expansion, adding an 11-story clinic building and a 10-story parking garage on the main campus to improve the accessibility of health care and efficiency in the manner in which that care is delivered. The pmc clinic houses eight additional operating rooms, six endoscopy suites, 23 pre-op rooms, 27 post-op rooms and most of pmc's physician practices including cardiothoracic surgery, vascular surgery, colorectal surgery, trauma surgery, general surgery, endocrinology, interventional radiology, gastroenterology, urology, orthopedic trauma surgery, orthopedic surgery, hand surgery, podiatry, sports medicine, obstetrics/gynecology, pediatrics, infectious disease, nephrology, neurology, neurosurgery, physiatry, pulmonology, ophthalmology, optometry, oral/maxillofacial surgery, otolaryngology, plastic/reconstructive surgery, and surgical oncology. The 1,162-space parking garage connects to the pmc clinic on each floor, allowing patients to conveniently park on the same floor as their physician's office.

New practices in the specialties of emergency medicine, nephrology, oral/maxillofacial surgery, optometry, and colorectal surgery encountered more than 49,396 patient visits during the fiscal year.
