About Saint Agnes Medical Center
Founded by the Sisters of the Holy Cross in 1929, Saint Agnes Medical Center has provided the highest quality and most compassionate care for Valley residents for over nine decades. Since opening our first 75-bed hospital on Fruit and Floradora avenues, Saint Agnes continues to lead and shape health care in the Central Valley - even during a global pandemic. Despite the challenges brought on by COVID-19, our colleagues and providers stepped up day after day and provided the care our community needed at its most vulnerable time. A lot has changed in the last 92 years, but our commitment to meeting the diverse needs of our growing population, and to healing the whole person - body, mind and spirit - still inspires everything we do.
Our growth continues with Saint Agnes Care, a nonprofit subsidiary of Saint Agnes Medical Center comprised of primary, specialty and urgent care clinics, which now includes a network of more than 80 providers at 20 locations in Fresno and Clovis. To provide better access and more convenient care for Valley residents, Saint Agnes Care Center has expanded and now houses the Brain & Spine and Orthopedic institutes along with General Surgery, Metabolic and Bariatric Surgery and Cardiovascular Surgery all under the same roof. Saint Agnes also continues to have success with its four accredited physician residency programs and is proud to still be Fresno County's only nationally recognized Baby-Friendly Hospital.
As our physical footprint grows, Saint Agnes remains focused on maintaining important partnerships with Dignity Health and Valley Children's Healthcare and building new relationships with Fresno Surgical Hospital and Summit Surgical to form an integrated health care delivery network unlike any other in the region. Guided by the values first inspired by the Sisters of the Holy Cross, Saint Agnes strives to be a blessing to the people of our Valley - lifting spirits through faith, hope, love and healing.
