Our department rests on a hillside overlooking the communities of El Paso, Texas; Las Cruces, New Mexico; and Juárez, Mexico. We serve a diverse population from the surrounding suburban area of West El Paso, as well as physician shortage areas extending across state borders.

Our vision is simple: become a model of compassionate, quality care that others seek to emulate.
