Methodist Charlton Medical Center recently received two more 'Best Of' hospital awards when it was voted Best Hospital, and the Methodist Charlton QuickCare Clinic was voted Best Medical Facility by The Suburban Newspaper readers and members of the community.
"We have a great team of professionals at Methodist Charlton," says Methodist Charlton President Jonathan Davis, FACHE. "It is because of their dedication and commitment to serving our patients and community that we were chosen for these awards. Our new QuickCare Clinic has served hundreds of patients in only four months and we are happy to have added this service to meet the needs of our community. We truly enjoy the opportunity to compassionately serve."
The awards were presented at the recent Suburban newspaper anniversary celebration. Methodist Charlton and the QuickCare Clinic also received awards recently from the Focus Daily News Readers' Choice Awards.
