Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center and Clinics (DHMC), Dartmouth Health’s flagship hospital and the only Level 1 trauma center and academic medical center in New Hampshire, was named to Forbes’ 2025 list of best employers nationwide. DHMC was one of 1,417 companies across the United States included in the ranking.
To create this seventh annual list, Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista to survey more than 160,000 employees who work for a company of at least 500 people within the U.S. Survey respondents were asked how likely they were to recommend their employer on a scale of zero to 10 and were asked to evaluate their workplace based on criteria including wage parity, work culture, paths to professional advancement and whether the employer takes action on serious issues, such as sexual harassment. Participants were also asked to evaluate their previous employers (within the last two years) and organizations they knew within their industry or through friends or family who work there.
DHMC was also named to Forbes’ 2025 lists of best employers for healthcare professionals and best employers for new graduates.
