“We are honored to be named to this trusted list, which is developed based on patient experience,” said Kathy Love, president, Saint Joseph East. “Being recognized for great care is always wonderful, but when it is decided based on the feedback of our patients, it has an even more special meaning, knowing we have been a significant part of their health care journey.”
