Whether coordinating schedules, supporting teams, managing communications, or keeping day-to-day operations on track, our administrative professionals are the backbone of every department. Your attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and unwavering support make a lasting impact, often in ways that go unseen but are always deeply appreciated. Thank you for all that you do to help Burgess thrive. We see you, we appreciate you, and we’re grateful every day for your contributions!

Clinical laboratories are often one of the largest diagnostic departments in a hospital, performing a wide range of essential testing including chemistry, blood counts, microbiology cultures, molecular diagnostics, blood bank compatibility testing, and pathology analyses, all under one roof. While this work represents an enormous daily workload, much of it happens behind the scenes, making the laboratory one of the most essential yet least visible parts of patient care.

During Lab Week, we recognize and deeply appreciate the skill, dedication, and critical role our laboratory professionals play in supporting accurate diagnosis and quality patient care every day. Thank you all for all you do!

Big day for progress!

Concrete is being poured today at the new Lewis Drug building, one step closer to opening the doors! Even better? A convenient drive-up window is located on the south side.

Our Story

When you’re not feeling right, all you want to know is why. And making multiple trips to far-away healthcare centers for diagnostic tests don’t improve your mood. Likewise, having surgery is stressful enough without having it happen far from home and inconvenient for your friends and family. Thanks to Burgess Health Center and our clinics, you can get extraordinary care from skilled professionals close to home.
