Nominating a physician is easy. Just think of a doctor who embodies our mission, “to promote the well-being and improve the health of our residents and guests,” and has made an impact on your life, a family member, or maybe someone you know.

Our Mammoth Hospital physicians work so hard to keep us all healthy. This is a small way of saying thank you for putting Patients First!

We encourage you to nominate a doctor from the Hospital, the Clinic, or both.
And consider a gift to the Mammoth Hospital Foundation in honor of a physician.
