AVORS Medical Group Named AV's Best Medical Group 2026

Excellence Through People, Passion, and Purpose


AVORS Medical Group is proud and honored to announce that we have been selected as AV's Best Medical Group for 2026, a distinction that carries special significance this year. Not only does this recognition celebrate excellence in healthcare throughout the Antelope Valley, but 2026 also marks the first year that AV's Best introduced a dedicated Best Clinic category, underscoring the growing importance of exceptional outpatient and community-based healthcare services.


This recognition belongs to every member of the AVORS family, from our providers and clinical staff to our administrative teams and support personnel. Most importantly, it belongs to the patients who place their trust in us every day.


According to Managing Partner Dr. Justin Sherfey, the key to AVORS Medical Group's success has always been the people who make up the organization.

"The power of a group is founded in our people."

Those simple words reflect a core belief that has guided AVORS Medical Group throughout its growth. A medical group is not defined by a building, a logo, or even its services alone. It is defined by the individuals who show up every day dedicated to improving the health and lives of others.


At AVORS, that includes physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, medical assistants, front office staff, managers, and countless team members working behind the scenes. Together, they create an environment focused on compassion, collaboration, innovation, and patient-centered care.


This award is a testament to what can be accomplished when talented healthcare professionals unite around a shared mission: delivering exceptional care to the community we serve.


For Medical Director Dr. Thomas Nasser, the recognition reflects AVORS Medical Group's unwavering commitment to quality.

"This award represents the quality of care we provide, the quality of our providers, and the burning passion we have to continually strive to be the best."

Healthcare is constantly evolving, and AVORS Medical Group embraces the responsibility to grow, improve, and innovate. Every patient interaction is an opportunity to provide compassionate, evidence-based medical care delivered by highly skilled professionals. Dr. Nasser's vision emphasizes more than clinical excellence alone. It is about building a culture where quality is never considered a destination, but rather a continuous pursuit. From preventive care and chronic disease management to specialty services and community outreach, AVORS remains focused on delivering healthcare that exceeds expectations.


The recognition as AV's Best Medical Group 2026 validates the dedication of providers who consistently go above and beyond to ensure patients receive the highest level of care.  AVORS Medical Group CEO Joseph Hurley believes that passion has been one of the defining characteristics behind AVORS Medical Group's growth and success.


"Our clinic has a passion to be the best. We are constantly challenging ourselves to improve, to innovate, and to better serve our community. We are also incredibly fortunate to have the best patients. Their trust, loyalty, and support inspire us every day to continue raising the bar."

The relationship between a healthcare organization and its patients is built on trust. AVORS Medical Group recognizes that every patient who chooses our practice is placing confidence in our team during some of life's most important moments.

That trust serves as motivation for continual improvement and reinforces our commitment to providing accessible, compassionate, and exceptional care for generations to come.



The momentum and impact of AVORS Medical Group have also been recognized beyond the local community.

In addition to being named AV's Best Medical Group 2026, AVORS Medical Group was recently honored as a finalist for Community Clinic of the Year by the Los Angeles Business Journal. This recognition further validates the organization's commitment to community health, clinical excellence, and patient-focused service.


Being recognized among respected healthcare organizations throughout the region reflects the dedication of our entire team and reinforces our mission of making a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve.


While awards and accolades are meaningful, they are ultimately reflections of something much deeper: a commitment to excellence, teamwork, and service.  As AVORS Medical Group celebrates this milestone, we remain focused on the future. We will continue investing in our people, enhancing patient experiences, expanding access to quality healthcare, and pursuing innovative ways to serve our community.


To our employees, providers, partners, and most importantly our patients: thank you. Your support, trust, and dedication make achievements like this possible.


Together, we will continue striving to set new standards of excellence in healthcare.



As leadership reflects on this remarkable recognition, one quote perfectly captures the spirit behind the achievement:

"None of us is as smart as all of us."
– Ken Blanchard

That philosophy represents the heart of AVORS Medical Group. Through the strength of our people, the quality of our care, and our collective passion for excellence, we are honored to be recognized as AV's Best Medical Group 2026 and remain committed to serving our community with unwavering dedication.
