CINCINNATI (Dec. 14, 2015) – The Urology Group has been named a 2014/15 National APEX Quality Award winner in recognition of its outstanding patient satisfaction and overall quality of care to patients.

This national distinction, presented by SPH Analytics, recognizes outstanding healthcare organizations and care teams who have demonstrated the highest level of excellence in patient satisfaction and overall care in the 12-month evaluation period. Winners are determined solely by feedback given by their patients.

“As an independent company in the healthcare business, we strive to provide a breadth and depth of experience and specialization unmatched in the region in which patient care is our primary responsibility,” said Earl Walz, chief executive officer of The Urology Group. “I am thrilled and proud to be recognized for our efforts, especially with an award determined by patient satisfaction.

The APEX Quality Award has been adopted as one of the more prestigious awards in the healthcare industry, with only 104 healthcare facilities nationwide recognized this year. The Urology Group is the only award recipient in the Cincinnati area.

“We are honored to recognize 104 of our clients for the outstanding care they have provided to their patients over the past 12 months. The APEX Quality Award is a testament to the winner’s hard work and dedication to their patients and communities,” said Al Vega, Chief Executive Officer at SPH Analytics. “We wish them continued success in the upcoming year and beyond.”
