Demonstrating a New Approach to Care

“Doing things the way they’ve always been done is not a plan or an option here. Arise has created this really intimate, dynamic environment and an MVP team that is willing to figure out and invest in whatever it is that makes patient experiences better.”

“At Arise, our goal is to ensure every patient knows that they are our top priority and that we genuinely care for them.”

“The staff was amazing. They were all so nice and professional. It was clear they all enjoyed their work. Each person who would be responsible for some part of my care came to see me before the surgery. They explained every step and made sure I was comfortable.”

“They were all cordial, knowledgeable and very professional as they cared for my needs. Also, check-in was very efficient. I highly recommend this facility for any and all of your medical needs.”

“No hospital/surgery center has ever inspired me to write a review except Arise Medical Center...The bottom line is that they provided a calming influence and extremely good care during 2 very stressful times for me and my family. I recommend them without hesitation.”
