    • San Juan Regional Medical Center is a community owned and operated hospital located in the beautiful San Juan River Valley in northwest New Mexico. A non-profit hospital serving the Four Corners area of New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and Utah, SJRMC has a rich heritage dating back to before New Mexico was a state. In 1910, two physicians, Dr. G.W. Sammons and Dr. A.M. Smith, saw a community need for quality healthcare close to home. They started an eight-bed hospital so patients would not have to travel the treacherous 50 miles to Durango, Colorado. Today, the focus on serving the community with quality healthcare services remains, although SJRMC has grown into a 198 bed, level III trauma center including state-of-the-art operating suites and 165 private patient rooms with fresh air balconies. As a340B hospital, SJRMC is committed to good stewardship principles to enhance services and care for our patients.

SJRMC focuses on personalizing the care they deliver to a diverse population of patients and communities. SJRMC’s core values ofSacred Trust, Personal Reverence, Thoughtful Anticipation, Creative VitalityandTeam Accountabilityenable them to provide the personalized care that lies at the heart of their mission.
