Harrison not only oversees clinical operations at Summit Surgery Center, but she also manages clinical services at all of Medbridge’s ambulatory surgery center facilities. Harrison combines her nursing and management experience to maintain all certification and accreditation standards for each Medbridge ASC.
“When I select medical company vendors, I want quality customer service reps,” Harrison said. “That, of course, encompasses the best deals, responses in a timely fashion, and great people to work with.”
By working with DRE Medical, now Med Vest Technology, Harrison has found a medical equipment provider that meets the needs of her facilities, while maintaining economical price points. Over the years, Med Vest Technology has sourced factory new and professionally New equipment for Summit Surgery Center and other Medbridge facilities including anesthesia machines, patient monitors, surgical stretchers, operating tables, defibrillators, and more.
In addition to offering a full selection of surgical equipment, Med Vest Technology also provides Medbridge with access to prompt installation and repair services.
