ABOUT US
Arizona Emergency Medicine Specialists (AEMS), P.C. was founded in 2005 by a group of residency trained emergency physicians that were looking for the opportunity to provide a high level of emergency care while residing in our local communities. We were not willing to work for large corporate emergency medicine groups that had no incentive to excel or recruit high quality and well-trained emergency physicians.
We are enjoying high levels of patient satisfaction, low wait times and a short length of stay. We pride ourselves on using a "team approach", working with our nursing and ancillary staff to maintain our EXCELLENT reputation in the region.
In July 2009 our group became the emergency medicine service provider for Havasu Regional Medical Center in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. Since that time we have been working hard to shorten wait times and length of stay. In addition, we have seen significant improvement in patient, medical staff and hospital employee satisfaction. We look forward to continuing to make improvements in all areas to ensure our community receives the high level of emergency care that we strive to provide.
