Regarding the 5-star awards, Bowman said: “It is critical for patients to select care based on three key pieces of information – hospital quality, facility and care team experience with your condition/procedure, and compatibility – and these 5-star distinctions are another benchmark to help make those decisions easier,” Bowman said. “We are proud to name MountainView Hospital as a 2022 5-Star recipient for vaginal delivery, C-section delivery, hysterectomy and gynecology procedures and look forward to their continued efforts to deliver better clinical outcomes for patients during natural childbirth, C-section deliveries, and gynecologic procedures.”
