When It All Began:

The decision was formed when our CEO, Justin Bergener, found VIP Transportation online. After connecting with Wael, VIP's owner, the two hit it off instantly. Their shared passion for helping communities through non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT) formalized the partnership, bringing Medstar and VIP Transport together.

Why Arizona?

Arizona is home to our CEO’s heart. Aside from the fact that his wife hails from the state, Bergener had stayed there from 1999-2001 as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He learned more about the communities and the people he came to love in Phoenix, Payson, and Lake Havasu–not to mention the spectacular valley views during early morning hikes. 

Business-wise, Arizona's unique needs, from its weather to a growing population and an aging demographic, make it a perfect fit for Medstar's experience and VIP transport services. We're here to provide top-notch services, including wheelchair accessibility and friendly rides.

Celebrating 40 years of experience in February, Medstar is bringing its wealth of knowledge to Arizona. We're adding 10 new vans this month and 15 more soon. Social services, health plans, and medical facilities can count on us for support tailored to Arizona's communities.

Challenges? We're Ready!

Every expansion has its challenges, but Medstar is ready to face them head-on, ensuring a smooth transition and exceeding expectations.

“We recognize that in any transition and growth there’s extra work that needs to be done and processes to be implemented and improved to raise the bar in NEMT transportation. We’ve done this before and feel confident that we’re prepared to meet this challenge and exceed expectations,” Bergener assured.
