My dad has been in assisted living since I was 11. I’m now 23. He started in Colorado and then we moved him down to Arizona. He was in a 2 places before Maryland gardens. The care he gets here from the staff is such a breath of fresh air. I read a lot of the reviews about the layout of the place and although I understand and can see the place needs a few improvements… they’re working on it and have voiced their opinion and are making changes. My dad’s old facility did not care about him and thought he was too much. MG has completely changed my perspective about assisted living. Every person who works there does an incredible job and is very attentive. I talk to Estrella all the time and she gives me updates on my dad. She’s one of the kindest people I’ve ever met and I’m beyond happy my dad is getting the help he needs at this place.

From my experience, the team that they have in this facility is really amazing. They genuinely care for their residents and their well-being.

One of the most beautifully planed facilities in central Phoenix for your loved one’s need! The staff is caring and provide value in their roles. It also have a wonderful outdoor area that provides quality of life for their residents.

I have had the opportunity to work with both Keith Carroll and the team at Maryland Gardens Post Acute and Maryland Gardens Assisted Living here in Phoenix, and I cannot speak highly enough of the level of care and professionalism they consistently provide. Their facilities serve a uniquely complex and often underserved population, including individuals with dementia-related behaviors and those facing serious mental health challenges. These are not easy cases, and they require a level of attentiveness, adaptability, and experience that goes well beyond standard care. From what I have observed, their team meets that challenge head-on. In particular, I had the opportunity to speak directly with Linda Murbach, who made the time to engage in a thoughtful, thorough conversation with me despite actively managing emergent issues within the facility. What stood out was her ability to seamlessly balance both—providing clear, informed insight while simultaneously directing staff and responding to incoming needs in real time. That level of command and presence is not something you see everywhere. I have also had several exchanges with Keith Carroll, all of which have been professional, responsive, and aligned with a clear commitment to resident care and operational excellence. From a fiduciary standpoint, it is critical to partner with facilities that not only understand the clinical side of care, but also appreciate the importance of coordination, communication, and respect for the individuals we collectively serve. Just as importantly, there must be an understanding of the legal complexities that can arise when working with court-appointed guardians, along with a willingness to step outside of traditional comfort zones to ensure that practice aligns with real-world practicality. Maryland Gardens demonstrates these qualities consistently. I greatly value the working relationship we are building and would confidently recommend Keith Carroll, Linda Murbach, and the Maryland Gardens team to anyone in need of specialized, high-quality care for vulnerable populations.
