Glendale Memorial Hospital and Health Center (GMHHC) announced it has achieved recognition for its clinical excellence from Healthgrades, the No. 1 site Americans use when searching for a doctor or hospital. GMHHC was rated five stars for cardiac care services, including coronary interventional procedures.

This achievement places GMHHC in the top hospitals nationwide for five-star care, underscoring its commitment to exceptional patient outcomes. 

“Our hospital remains committed to patient safety and clinical excellence,” said Dr. Will Wang, MD, DrPh, chief medical officer. “This quality distinction is a testament to the collaboration of our physicians, nurses, and caregivers.”

GMHHC’s achievement is based solely on what it states matters most: patient outcomes. 

“Advanced heart care is one of the many specialties that we offer to the Glendale community,” said Betsy Hart, MSN, hospital president and CEO. Honored by Healthgrades for five-star treatment of coronary interventional procedures, GMHHC treats over 36,000 emergency room visitors annually, including those patients experiencing chest pain and heart attacks. “Heart emergencies are never planned and can become life-threatening when left unaddressed. We are proud that our physicians and team can offer excellent care and treatment.” 

Healthgrades evaluated risk-adjusted mortality and complication rates for over 30 of the most common conditions and procedures at approximately 4,500 hospitals nationwide to determine top performers in specialty care.

“Healthgrades commends Dignity Health – Glendale Memorial Hospital and Health Center for their clear commitment to delivering consistently superior patient outcomes in critical service areas,” said Brad Bowman, MD, chief medical officer and head of Data Science at Healthgrades. “Glendale Memorial’s leadership, expertise and unwavering dedication to clinical excellence set a high mark for specialty care in California and nationwide.”
