Aurora, Ill.-based Dreyer Medical Center, a member of Downers Grove, Ill.-based Advocate Health Care since 1996, rebranded as Advocate Medical Group. The change was effective Jan. 1.
This is the facility's second rebranding. It previously changed its name and signage in 2014 from Dreyer Medical Clinic to Advocate Dreyer.
Officials said the rebranding process will be fully completed by the end of 2017 and will not affect the quality of care offered at the medical center.
"The integration process has been slow and thoughtful, but it's time to make the full transition to the AMG brand to maintain and strengthen our footprint in an increasingly competitive healthcare landscape," said Jon Christofersen, MD, a physician leader with the medical center. "Aligning with the AMG/Advocate Health Care brand provides an excellent opportunity for Dreyer to become more fully integrated with one of the nation's largest healthcare systems and most recognized medical groups."
