ATLANTIC CITY – You can hear the excitement in Dr. Jon Regis’s voice the moment you ask about The Gallery Executive Offices, the new micro?executive suite development opening this month on Atlantic Avenue near Stockton University’s Atlantic City campus.
The longtime obstetrician, entrepreneur, and philanthropist has transformed one of his buildings at 3813 Atlantic Avenue into high?quality, affordable “micro executive suites” designed for emerging businesses and startups.
“Micro executive and flex spaces have been around,” Regis told Front Runner New Jersey. “We have two conference rooms, a lounge where you can have lunch or coffee, and plenty of parking right across the street and along Atlantic Avenue. It’s ideal for a small business looking to grow and have a professional place to meet.”
The Gallery Executive Offices features 12 micro?executive suites, flexible rental options, large and small conference rooms, a full lounge and kitchen, and modern technology, printing, and business support services. The upper floors offer short?term accommodations for professionals who need a temporary home base in the city.
Seven of the 12 suites are already rented, a sign of strong demand. Regis said inquiries continue to come in, and the remaining spaces may be filled by the end of the month — prompting him to consider expanding the concept elsewhere in the city.
“There’s a lot of development happening in Atlantic City right now, and we want to be part of that,” Regis said, noting the city’s past and present potential. “I would not be able to do the things I’m doing today, or have had the success I’ve had, if it had not been for Atlantic City residents — especially working with some of the most disadvantaged women in the state.”
Regis has long been an active civic leader and philanthropist, supporting youth programs, educational initiatives, and community health outreach throughout the region. His work reflects a deep commitment to service, equity, and expanding opportunity.
“I got my start here because Black women and Hispanic women were having a difficult time getting OB?GYN care,” he said. “I’m an obstetrician — I deliver babies. Some of these women had to go to Camden to deliver.”
Regis is one of Atlantic County’s most respected physicians and a pioneer in community?centered healthcare. As founder and president of Reliance Medical Group, he spent more than three decades expanding access to quality medical services across South Jersey, particularly in communities that have historically faced barriers to care.
Now working as a healthcare consultant, Regis is focused on his next major project: opening a birthing center in Atlantic City within the next 24 months at the corner of Tennessee and Baltic avenues. There is currently no place for women to give birth in Atlantic City.
According to the New Jersey Department of Health, Atlantic County consistently ranks among the higher?risk counties for Black infant and mother mortality and morbidity, alongside Cumberland, Camden, and Essex counties. While the state does not break out data by city, Regis has witnessed the challenges firsthand.
“I owe my professional existence to Atlantic City,” he said. “I did about 1,000 deliveries a year right here in Atlantic City. Some mothers have to travel about 30 minutes to give birth.”
Regis said that AtlantiCare has supported the concept of the birthing center he wants to start.
One of the most distinctive features of the planned birthing center will be its role as a training hub for doulas, who provide emotional, physical, and informational support to mothers before, during, and after childbirth. Doulas are especially valued in African American communities,
where maternal health disparities remain stark.
Regis said the center would be the first facility of its kind in the country dedicated to training doulas alongside clinical birthing services.
He also credited the administration of Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small Sr. for supporting both projects.
“Congratulations to Dr. Jon Regis on bringing his vision to life,” Atlantic City’s assistant director of economic development Bruce Weekes wrote on Facebook last month. “This is 100% Black?owned. … Atlantic City continues to build momentum — one visionary project at a time.”
A board?certified obstetrician?gynecologist, Regis built his career on patient dignity, preventive care, and culturally competent medicine. Under his leadership, Reliance Medical Group grew into one of the region’s most comprehensive multispecialty practices, offering women’s health, pediatrics, family medicine, behavioral health, and diagnostic services to thousands of families.
He is widely recognized for his entrepreneurial approach to healthcare delivery, championing integrated care models, early adoption of medical technology, and innovative strategies to improve maternal and child health outcomes.
Today, Regis continues to shape the future of healthcare in South Jersey through mentorship, consulting, and his commitment to expanding access for underserved families. The Gallery Executive Offices — and the birthing center to come — are the latest expressions of his lifelong mission.
