History

History of Fremont Medical Centers
When he arrived in the Las Vegas Valley in 1975 J Corey Brown MD worked as an emergency room physician at Sunrise Hospital From 1975 through 1985 Dr Brown also worked simultaneously in the emergency rooms at Valley Hospital Desert Springs and St Rose de Lima serving as the Director of the Emergency Department at Valley Hospital from 19751985 and also at Desert Springs from 19781979

During this time Dr Brown became a wellknown and wellrespected physician in Las Vegas and established the valleys only lifesaving Flight for Life program serving as Medical Director from 1980 to 1984 He also was part owner of Doctors Emergency Medical Services that provided emergency room physicians for Valley Hospital

Following his years of service as emergency room physician and his dedication to Flight for Life Dr Brown opened his first medical center aptly named Fremont Medical Center in 1985 The building selected was the former JC Pennys department store presently located at the corner of Fremont Street and Sixth Street in the heart of Downtown Las Vegas

Dr Brown opened the center with three physicians serving approximately 125 patients per day With his philosophy of serving patients with compassion and professionalism Fremont Medical Centers began to grow

Dr Brown added more physicians to the staff as well as a physical therapy department and eventually established his own practice on the second floor of the building while overseeing the Fremont Medical Center practice

As the community continued to grow there became a need for a medical center on the west side of the valley To accommodate this growth and demand Fremont Medical Centers opened its second facility formerly located at Flamingo and Arville in October of 1988 The successful medical center relocated to a brand new state of the art center at the corner of Tropicana Avenue and Wynn Road in 1997

Henderson was selected as the location for the third medial center completed in 1995 to serve the soaring Henderson population In an effort to serve our patients in the Northwest and also try to keep up with the healthcare demand and ever growing population Fremont Medical Center expanded yet again by adding the fourth medical center in 1996 Demand and growth caused us to expand into a new state of the art building on Charleston Boulevard and Apple Drive

In addition Fremont Medical Centers also operates FIT Fremont Inpatient Team This is a team of physicians experts in their field dedicated to overseeing all Fremont Medical Center patients during their hospitalization in any one of the many hospitals in the Las Vegas Valley offering our patients complete and total care throughout the duration of their hospital stay
