We are proud of our incredible scope of care offered to women, from prevention to obstetrics to complex health issues. We are here for women throughout all phases of their lives and grateful for this recognition.”

The Women’s Choice Award (www.womenschoiceaward.com) only awards the top 10% of hospitals in the nation. The award signifies that Valley View is in the top 3% for obstetrics, top 4% for heart care and top 6% for minimally invasive surgeries.

In determining its Best Hospitals list, the Women’s Choice Award uses the most recent publicly available information from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), as well as accreditation information and surveys from thousands of women to determine which measures are most important to them.
