Thank you for choosing Genesis for 10 years
Tuesday, April 29, 2025
It’s Genesis Hospital’s 10th anniversary of opening.
As we started plans in 2011 for our new era of healthcare in Southeastern Ohio, we asked for your opinion. We only had one chance to build our new hospital, and we wanted to get it right.
Past and present patients came together to engage in the planning. Extensive focus groups provided valuable ideas. Drafts of plans and architectural drawings were shared to improve the design. Public walkthroughs of mock patient rooms gave us firsthand feedback to refine the patient experience.
You asked for private rooms and bathrooms, an enlarged emergency department, private transport hallways, free valet parking and beautiful courtyards.
You wanted to walk from one end of the facility to the other without stepping foot outside. The inclusion of more glass and brightly colored hallways would create a more positive atmosphere.
Building a Cancer Care Center separated from the main hospital was important. Designed exclusively around patients’ needs, it was consolidated into one space so patients could receive “WrapAround Cancer Care.”
Because of your valuable input and all your support, we were able to create a patient-centered facility to provide you with the highest quality of care.
As we enter our next decade, our vision continues to be a hospital that exceeds your expectations. Thank you for trusting us with you and your family’s care.

Since 2015, you chose Genesis for:
82,000+ Surgeries
Ashley Tamasovich
“I researched the best breast cancer care at a time that I needed top-notch doctors and up-to-date surgery to save my life,” said Ashley Tamasovich. “I found Genesis, and because of them I get to stay active and do the things I love. I get to keep being a wife and a mom and can live each day to the fullest.”
15,500+ Orthopedic surgeries
Nancy Walsh
“Arthritis kept me from an active life,” said Nancy Walsh. “I walked a lot for my job. I was dedicated to having both knees replaced close together to live pain-free. I chose Genesis for both surgeries. I was committed to my recovery. After the second surgery, I was back to work in five weeks. I still feel better than ever and am ready to enjoy my retirement.”
1,200+ Coronary artery bypass graft surgeries
Dean Daniels
“I would have never thought I was going to have a heart attack,” said Dean Daniels. “I’m alive because of Genesis and my coronary artery bypass graft. I’m back to where I was and am able to hike and play golf.”
5,000+ Robotic-assisted surgeries
Christine Wolford
“Heartburn kept me from eating my favorite foods for seven years,” said Christine Wolford. “After being diagnosed with a paraesophageal hernia, I called the Genesis Center of Surgical Excellence. Since my robotic-assisted surgery, I’ve been able to enjoy eating again. Everything has changed.”
4,700+ Neurosurgeries
Marshall Kroll
“Back pain got in the way of everyday tasks,” said Marshall Kroll. “It even hurt to sit in a chair. I felt comfortable asking my Genesis care team about treatment options. After my spinal cord stimulator procedure, I’m back to doing everything. I can sit and read a book. I’ve returned to walking several miles a week. I’m really happy I chose Genesis because the team is great. I feel incredible.”
