Dr. Jeremy Kenter, Chief Medical Officer: “I’m incredibly thankful to be part of an organization that provides physicians and staff with a sense of purpose and fulfillment. I hear from countless individuals that we ‘saved’ their careers, and now they once again feel the empathy and joy they had when they first entered the field of medicine. This fulfillment significantly impacts patient care, and our glowing reviews from patients show us that what we are doing matters.”

Jori Short, Chief Operating Officer: “I’m thankful for Ally Medical’s commitment to its community and employees. Being able to lead an organization that truly forms allyship with each patient, employee, and community partner is a blessing to watch on a daily basis. We are honored to provide care to our diverse community and make an impact on their lives.”

Victoria Piedra, ER Tech: “I’m thankful for my family & friends who support me and motivate me. I’m thankful for the opportunity to work for a company that gives back like Ally. Lastly, I’m thankful for my lash lady 😊.”

Katy Rankin, Head of Brand and Events: “My amazing husband and two sweet boys Luke and Cruz; my wonderful village of friends and family that make every day possible; my very talented marketing team that shows up and works so hard week after week; and, last but not least, I’m thankful the Holiday Season is about to kick-off!!!”
When you or a loved one needs emergency care, where you go matters. But many people still hesitate to visit a Free-Standing Emergency Room (FSER) due to outdated assumptions or misinformation.
Emergencies are, by nature, unpredictable. When every second counts, being prepared can make a huge difference. Not just in your outcome, but in your peace of mind.
In an emergency, every second counts, and how you communicate your symptoms can make a big difference in how quickly and accurately you’re treated.
