Facility Highlights:

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 we have 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 our hospital 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 a 340B hospital SJRMC is committed to good stewardship principles to enhance services and care for our patients.
