In our own words

Profile Picture of Robby Toledano

Coming from Chicago, UNMH was personally attractive to me for the geographic location with milder winters and less bustle of the windy city. From an organizational perspective, I find the mission of health care important but was really impressed by the unique features such as the only Level 1 Trauma center in New Mexico and the historical connection to the Indian Health Service and the people of New Mexico.

Our History

Tracing our roots to 1954, the facility now called UNMH opened as the only hospital dedicated to serving local Native Americans. Today, our links to the Native American community remain strong, with Native American heritage celebrated daily, continued partnerships and support including language services, outreach and priority access for admissions and appointments.

We are proud to be New Mexico’s hospital—homegrown, public and supportive of all who live and work here. Taking good care of patients and families is what drives us, and our mission ensures we’ll continue to deliver more to everyone we encounter.
