Medbridge is an ambulatory surgery center development and management firm. With experience in taking multiple projects through due diligence to completed construction and eventual profitability, Medbridge has successfully distinguished itself in a very competitive market niche.
With experience across multiple areas of operation while at Medbridge I was able to obtain a valuable knowledge base of ASC business operations. This, combined with extensive time spent working with the medical staff in one of our facilities gave me a thorough knowledge of what is required in order to run a profitable ASC.
