Mountain Mail Reports

Socorro General Medical Group, SGMG, announced that its Women’s Health Center’s remodeling was completed earlier this month. The Center is adjacent to Socorro General Hospital located at 1202 Hwy. 60 West in Socorro.
“We’re committed to providing quality care throughout Socorro County and expanding women’s health care has been a top priority,” said Socorro General Hospital Administrator Bo Beames. “In retrospect, we’ve recruited top providers and then ensured our facilities were modernized in serving patients both today and tomorrow. Our next area of focus is our primary care as Socorro County residents continue to trust us while we care for them and their families.”
The Women’s Health Center provides three exam rooms, a procedure room as well as offices for Obstetric and Gynecology Physician Dr. Chawki Nahabet and Certified Nurse Midwife Kim Swift. The Center generously offers nearly 3,000 square feet for patient comfort and convenience. Both Audiology and Podiatry services are located on the other side of the same building.
Dr. Nahabet provides a full range of services for women including routine obstetric and gynecological care, laparoscopy, laparotomy, ovarian cysts, hysterectomies and some infertility care. Swift provides full scope midwifery care to include in-patient labor and delivery, gynecological and newborn care services.
Dr. Nahabet joined SGMG in 2008 and Swift arrived in August 2009.
"We're honored to have completed this project in order to serve women throughout Socorro County without the inconveniences remodeling projects pose. This Center allows patients to go to one facility for all of their health needs," said Beames.
Socorro General Hospital is owned by Presbyterian Healthcare Services which exists to improve the health of patients, members and communities served.
Socorro General Hospital was built in 1984 and employs 200 people including 10 physicians and operates the hospital, home health and hospice services along with several clinics for family practice, podiatry, obstetrics/gynecology and general surgery serving Socorro County.
