About Summit Healthcare Services

Summit Healthcare Services is a Medicare-certified home health agency serving Phoenix, AZ and has been Medicare certified since 2018. Services offered in the home include skilled nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, medical social services and home health aide visits. The agency is privately owned.

Medicare rates the quality of patient care at Summit Healthcare Services 5.0 out of 5 stars, based on how quickly care starts, how often patients improve at walking, bathing and managing medications, and how often they are readmitted to the hospital.

I love Dr varga! He helps me out always. But the referral department is TERRIBLE, why does it take 6-8 weeks for a referral. A person could die in that amount of time before seen by a specialist!! I have no insurance would’ve been nice to know you don’t need a referral if don’t have insurance. Could’ve been on the path to healing a LONG time ago!!!!!!! Most of these specialists that travel to summit are not doctors, the white mountains is there get away so when they’re up in show low , it’s just vacation for them. I’m not impressed with them.
