The mission of West Branch Regional Medical Center is to provide quality healthcare services to improve the health status of the communities we serve. West Branch Regional Medical Center has undergone a multitude of revolutionary changes since its inception in 1929 as the Tolfree Memorial Hospital, but has maintained true to the ideal that everyone deserves access to quality healthcare. A local farmer, banker and lumberman, John Tolfree, made it his personal priority to bring needed healthcare services to the area after living through the deaths of two sons and a sickly wife. After petitioning the city for approval to build, the original Tolfree Memorial Hospital was erected on Houghton Avenue in West Branch in 1929. However, the size and needs of the community soon outgrew the available hospital beds and proved that an expansion was necessary. After much needed hospital additions were constructed in 1954, 1967 and 1976, the hospital reached a 92 bed capacity and gained significant presence in the community. The hospital had transformed from a strict acute-care facility to a well-rounded primary and secondary care facility to service the needs of the community. With these new changes came new challenges, as the community had once again outgrown the hospital capacity. In 1996, the Tolfree Memorial Hospital Board of Trustees broke ground on a brand new medical complex following a successful fundraising campaign. The brand new medical center and the Seton Cancer Institute were opened in 1999 to accommodate growth and area needs for care. With these new additions, cancer patients no longer need to make the trip to Saginaw for help and new specialized services have been added to accommodate a growing need
Not many would disagree that the gift of vision is precious and that sight is the sense we often rely on the most. But when it comes to taking care of their eyes many people fall short. Why? Because it`s not particularly easy to do. At least, that`s what our CEO and Founder, Howard Bornstein, thought. A few years back, when Howard failed to recognize a colleague who greeted him from down the hall, he learned the hard way that he was overdue for an eye exam. Over the next couple of years, however, he recognized the utter inconveniences of the entire process: office hours made it challenging to fit in an appointment with a full-time job, finding an office close by and that accepted his insurance presented further struggles, he seemed to incur unnecessary charges, follow-up visits were required, and that`s not to mention the issue of Driving While Dilated (D.W.D). These inconveniences slowly nagged at him as he continued to learn more and more about the vision care industry. With a background in consulting and venture capital, eventually he couldn`t help but think, “just because this is how something`s always been done, doesn`t mean there isn`t a better way to do it.” When Howard met our Chief Medical Officer, Shazia Ahmed, at a cocktail party, it was as if the stars had aligned. She had the medical background and was looking to branch out in her career, and he had the business know-how and entrepreneurial spirit. The idea of 2020 grew gradually, out of a ton of research, observation and fact-finding. It all boiled down to this: Why not turn something that`s so important into something that`s also hassle-free? Why not meet people where they are, and bring the eye doctor to them? Why not make the experience entirely customer-focused? That`s just what we did.
