ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (August 18, 2025) — Albuquerque ER & Hospital has received two recognitions highlighting its efforts in both patient care and workplace culture. The hospital has been named a finalist for “Best Emergency Room/Urgent Care” in the 2025 Albuquerque Journal Readers’ Choice Awards and named a “Best Place to Work” by Albuquerque Business First, marking the fourth consecutive year it has received the workplace honor.

Now in its 20th year, the Readers’ Choice Awards recognizes individuals and organizations every year for their service and contributions to the Albuquerque community. More than 45,000 votes were cast in 2025. The annual Best Places to Work awards highlight New Mexico employers based on anonymous employee feedback. Out of hundreds of participating businesses, 37 were selected this year.

“These awards are especially meaningful because they reflect the voices of both our community and our team,” said Sanjay Kholwadwala, MD, Chief Medical Officer at Albuquerque ER & Hospital. “They highlight the everyday experiences of our patients and staff.”

Albuquerque ER & Hospital continues to redefine emergency care by eliminating common barriers found in traditional hospitals. It offers little-to-no wait times, 24/7 access to board-certified physicians, and a full on-site radiology suite, delivering accessible, patient-centered care that sets a new standard for health care in New Mexico.

As the hospital celebrates these achievements, it extends heartfelt gratitude to its patients, team members, and the Albuquerque community for their continued trust and support.

The 2025 Readers’ Choice Awards finalists were announced by the Albuquerque Journal on July 26, 2025, and the Best Places to Work honorees were featured in Albuquerque Business First on August 7, 2025.
