Murray’s Intermountain Medical Center was listed with eight high-performing specialties — cardiology/heart surgery, diabetes/endocrinology, gastroenterology, geriatrics, gynecology, nephrology, pulmonology and urology.
McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden was recognized for five — gastroenterology, geriatrics, nephrology, pulmonology and urology — while Utah Valley Regional Medical Center in Provo was recognized for four — gastroenterology, geriatrics, pulmonology and urology.
The magazine’s rankings were based on hospital reputation as measured by a survey of medical specialists, outcomes, volumes, service excellence ratings, mortality rates and other measures related to patient care, including data collected by the federal government.
