THE BEST OF THE BEST

1 Mayo Clinic

ROCHESTER, MINNESOTA

RANKED #1 BEST GLOBAL HOSPITAL SIX YEARS IN A ROW FOR ITS EXEMPLARY QUALITY across the board, the Mayo Clinic is based out of Rochester, Minnesota, with campuses in Scottsdale, Arizona, and Jacksonville, Florida, and dozens of affiliated clinics across the country. Serving over 1.3 million patients annually from nearly 130 countries, this expansive nonprofit health system employs over 76,000 people and generated $16.3 billion in revenue in 2022. Its principles are exemplified by founders Dr. Charles Horace Mayo and Dr. William James Mayo, who famously said, "The glory of medicine is that it is constantly moving forward." Today, the center is advancing medical research with emerging technologies. Among other projects, the center's gastroenterologists are working to incorporate artificial intelligence in colonoscopy procedures to minimize the possibility of missing hard-to-spot polyps, thereby detecting colon cancer earlier. 

2 Cleveland Clinic

CLEVELAND

MORE THAN A CENTURY OLD, THE CLEVELAND CLINIC ENCOMPASSES 77,000 caregivers, 23 hospitals and 275 outpatient facilities in Ohio, Florida, Nevada, Canada, London and the UAE. Consistently ranked #2 on our list of global hospitals since 2019, the ever-expanding innovation hub is known for discovering serotonin, completing the first successful larynx transplant and developing a triple-negative breast cancer vaccine.

Researchers from Cleveland Clinic are trailblazers in medical discovery. In collaboration with IBM, they unveiled the first quantum computer dedicated to healthcare research last year. In January, the team published a study detailing how artificial intelligence models were instrumental in identifying new targets for immunotherapy.
