Montrose Regional Health hires new spine surgeon
MONTROSE, Colo. (KREX) – Montrose Regional Health has hired a new spine surgeon, Dr. Rasheed Abiola. With this addition, surrounding areas will soon have the ability to get advanced spinal care much closer to home. Dr. Abiola will officially join the MRH Spine and Pain Center on June 9. His arrival brings nine years of spine surgery experience, with expertise in minimally invasive, robotic, motion-preserving and complex spine surgeries. 'Dr. Abiola's arrival at Montrose Regional Health is a huge milestone for our Spine and Pain Center,' said Jeff Mengenhausen, CEO of Montrose Regional Health. 'No one should have to leave their community to get world-class spine and pain care. With Dr. Abiola and our exceptional team, patients can now access that expertise right here in Montrose.' Dr. Abiola studied at The Chicago Medical School at Rosalind Franklin University and is certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery (ABOS). Before coming to MRH, he was practicing at Mendelson Kornblum Orthopedics at Synergy Health Partners in Troy, Michigan, as an orthopedic spine surgeon. 'The majority of spine conditions can be treated without surgery,' Dr. Abiola said. 'My goal is to thoroughly explore all non-surgical options and only consider surgery when those options have been fully exhausted.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Montrose Regional Health receives prestigious recognition
MONTROSE, Colo (KREX) – Montrose Regional Health has been recognized as a recipient of the 2025 Healthgrades Outstanding Patient Experience Award. The award puts the hospital among the top 15% nationwide for compassionate care and patient satisfaction. This all comes directly after MRH won the 2025 Patient Safety Excellence Award just earlier this year, which made it one of 66 hospitals nationally, and the lone one on the Western Slope, to receive both honors in 2025. 'Our patients deserve the very best, and we work hard every day to deliver on that promise,' said Jeff Mengenhausen, CEO of Montrose Regional Health. 'These awards reflect the dedication of our caregivers and providers. More importantly, they represent the trust our community places in us. We are committed to being the health system of choice for the Western Slope.' The more recent honor, the Outstanding Patient Experience Award, is based on a patient survey, and the Patient Safety Excellence Award is based on clinical outcomes. MRH isn't new to recognition, though. Just in the past year, it received four other awards besides the two mentioned earlier. It received the Gallagher Best-in-Class Employer Award, the Becker's Hospital Review Cleanliness Recognition, the Chartis Top 100 Rural and Community Hospitals Award and the U.S. News and World Report High Performing Hospital Award.
