From Active-Duty Medical Officer To Gastroenterologist: A Conversation With Dr. Paredes
We caught up with Dr. Paredes to learn more about his work as a gastroenterologist, the biggest misconceptions around...
Our team has spent decades in the infusion and healthcare industry. We saw all the mistakes the industry was making.
The cost, the confusion, the antiquated technology. Patients sit in cold, fluorescent-lit rooms, for several hours at a time. Outside of the room, the experience isn't any warmer. Inaccurate medical bills. A lack of communication. A referral process that's lengthy and daunting. For patients, this isn't just treatment—this is their life.
At every step, we thought, "there has to be a better way."
We aim to improve outcomes for patients, save time for physicians and make it all more affordable for everyone involved.
Through a blend of human-centered design and a people-first culture, Local Infusion puts the "local feel" of community, comfort and connection back into the patient and provider experience. At our care centers, all patients—and our healthcare team—can feel truly supported, every step of the way.

Nicole, my nurse, is so kind and caring, and Shauna is extremely organized and thorough. They got my meds approved quickly and delivered a 10/10 experience from even before my visit - wonderful all around! Exceptional, kind care and speedy scheduling! Highly recommend the entire staff and the experience.
After many years of infusions at a local hospital, I was blown away by Local Infusion. The comfortable rooms. The amazing staff who made me feel like the most important person they would be seeing that day. Nurse Nicole genuinely cares and LISTENS. Shauna went above & beyond on ALL insurance related things! They made me feel like I mattered.Having a chronic illness does not have any “perks,” but … Finding Local Infusion makes me actually look forward to my infusions!
Working with Nicole, APRN & Amanda Vincent on coordination of infusions for our patients has been seamless and efficient! They communicate clearly and effectively with our team and the patients they are working with. I look forward to seeing more results as our patients benefit from their Care Coordination Program and swift timing from orders sent to time of infusion.
I was initially apprehensive about switching from a hospital clinic to an infusion center. I was put at ease with the quick efficiency of Shauna and Nicole who got me in fast and gave me a wonderful experience and great care. The facility was beautiful and relaxing which made my treatment feel like being pampered, with great snacks too. As a nurse myself, I can be very careful in selecting a treatment facility- patients will love the care and experience here at Local Infusion! I highly recommend them!
We're committed to financial transparency. No surprise bills or hidden costs, and financial assistance support for every eligible patient. Cost should never be a barrier to your care.
