This year's list recognizes hospitals across 12 different medical fields-the top 300 hospitals for cardiology and oncology; the top 250 for pediatrics; the top 150 for cardiac surgery, endocrinology, gastroenterology, orthopedics and pulmonology; the top 125 for neurology, neurosurgery and urology; and the top 100 for obstetrics & gynecology.
The ranking is determined by a global survey in which tens of thousands of medical professionals were invited to give recommendations in their area of expertise. It also factors in accreditation data and patient-reported outcome measures.
This year's list features recognizable names-like the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, and Charité in Berlin-and hospitals across the globe, with Australia, Brazil, India, Japan and Spain among represented countries. We hope this list helps you find the highest-quality specialized care whenever you might need it.
