Big news for Santa Fe! 🌟
Presbyterian Santa Fe Medical Center has received a 5-star rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the highest possible rating for hospital quality and patient care—and the only hospital in New Mexico to earn this recognition.

This honor reflects the incredible dedication of our physicians, nurses and care teams who are determined to deliver safe, compassionate, high-quality care every day.

Most importantly, it means our community has access to nationally recognized care, right here close to home. 💙

Congratulations to our team for this well‑deserved achievement!
