99% of patients would rate their overall EXCEL experience as ’10 out of 10’ and would recommend the program to their family and friends.

“EXCEL’s 1-on-1 approach gives patients peace of mind, allowing family and caregivers to relax. Procedures are done inside innovative surgery centers, and patients recover in private care suites. Plus, it’s about 30% less expensive than a hospital. Patients love it, but because we typically save health plans $30 million or more per year, it’s no wonder employers are also taking notice.” – Dr. Christopher Meyer, President and CEO.
