About Us

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.

A lot has changed in the last nine decades, 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. To provide better access and more convenient care, we continue to focus efforts on expanding service offerings and online scheduling capabilities.

Saint Agnes also continues to have success with its five accredited physician residency and fellowship programs and is proud to be Fresno’s first nationally recognized Baby-Friendly Hospital.

As our footprint grows, Saint Agnes remains committed to maintaining critical partnerships and to nurturing important relationships throughout the community in order to provide our patients the high-quality care they deserve. 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.
