About Us

Providing Service to New Mexico communities Since 1974

Company Philosophy

The condition of the health care industry today is such that Customer Service is a priority. Customers expect to be treated with respect and dignity. Our customer is everyone we encounter and make contact with when on an ambulance call, which includes and is not limited to the patient, doctor, nurse, police, rescue, and family.

Since the purchase of Superior Ambulance, under the current ownership and direction of Chris L. Archuleta, Superior Ambulance has grown to now be the largest private ambulance provider in New Mexico. This is not to say it was easy. We underwent some major reorganization changes in the first 2 years of the new ownership. In late 1995 we began to see the rewards of our reorganization efforts.

In April 1999 Superior Ambulance established Superior Medical Transportation as a separate division to operate as a Transportation Management company in an effort to segregate the ambulance operation from transportation management. Now Superior Ambulance is at the point to continue the growth, and build our business to the next level

Today we are the largest provider of Emergency 911 and Non-Emergency ambulance services in New Mexico. Superior Ambulance Service, Inc. provides services to;  Albuquerque-Metro, Grants, Santa Fe, Taos, and Torrance County (east of Albuquerque).

Superior Ambulance Service complies with applicable Federal civil rights laws and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, disability, or sex
