Something Special

A community takes pride and is reassured in knowing certain resources are available and on the ready to care for it's health and medical concerns. The University of New Mexico Sandoval Regional Medical Center (UNM SRMC) is one of those invaluable resources the people of Rio Rancho and Sandoval County of New Mexico have in place. All of the planning, building, setting the stage for this medical center is now being realized. 

The healing grounds face the East with a clear and panoramic view of the beautiful and rugged Sandia Mountains. The sight is fantastic and immediately one can feel and see something special about this corner of the world. The brilliant light and big sky surrounding the hospital blend together perfectly in the high desert as innovative research and state of the art medical technology blaze trails in the Northern end of Rio Rancho. Quality health care and medical education are at the forefront as General Medicine practitioners and specialist's provide hope and help in Obstetrics and Gynecology care, Geriatric services, Orthopedics, Non-invasive Cardiology testing and treatment to Behavioral Health support, Emergency Medicine, a Radiology Department, classrooms, clinics and laboratories.

As a teaching hospital it is possible for an individual to go from patient or visitor to student learning a specialty providing care to the people who pass through the doors. UNM SRMC is a treasure put in place by the community itself, it is a landmark of excellence, an important presence in the lives of those who can count on it being there when the need arises to diagnose, repair, teach and rely on far into the future.
