I think you’re asking the wrong question. You need the best primary care physician, OB/Gynecologist, and pediatrician in your area who is accepting patients. Other than childbirth, you’re unlikely to set foot in a hospital.

Healthcare in Hartford is generally better than healthcare in Springfield. It’s far more affluent. It is a top-20 metro for median household income. It’s easier to attract strong physicians. The Medicaid mix is better. It has a medical school and teaching hospitals.

I agree, thanks. I was asking which hospital affiliation I should steer toward when looking for doctors.

In Enfield? I’d stick with Bay State. It would be a huge PITA to go to Hartford.
