THE WORLD'S BEST SPECIALIZED HOSPITALS 2024

|September 22, 2023
INFORMATION IS A POWERFUL TOOL when you or someone you love is facing an important health care decision, especially one that requires selecting a hospital or care team.
That's why Newsweek has once again partnered with global research firm. Statista to rank the world's best-specialized hospitals. This year, we expanded our rankings to cover the best facilities in 12 specialties, with the addition of obstetrics & gynecology.
The full ranking online features the top 300 hospitals for cardiology and oncology; the top 250 for pediatrics; the top 150 for cardiac surgery, endocrinology and gastroenterology; the top 125 for neurology, neurosurgery, orthopedics, pulmonology and urology; and the top 100 for obstetrics & gynecology (see Newsweek.com/wbsp-2024; a smaller number appears in print due to space constraints). We hope this ranking is helpful when deciding on the right hospital for yourself or a loved one.
METHODOLOGY
The World's Best Specialized Hospitals 2024 ranking awards the leading hospitals worldwide in 12 medical fields: cardiac surgery, cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, neurology, neurosurgery, orthopedics, oncology, pediatrics, pulmonology, urology and (for the first time) obstetrics & gynecology.
The lists are based on a global survey, to which tens of thousands of medical professionals (doctors, health care professionals and hospital managers) were invited.

MELISSA PETERMAN
FOR MELISSA PETERMAN, THE FIRST SEASON OF NBC'S HAPPY'S PLACE WAS A dream come true; getting a second season is an embarrassment of riches. “Getting a pilot is the lottery. Getting that pilot picked up is another gigantic win that is getting rarer and rarer.” Peterman plays Gabby, friend and co-worker of Bobbie, played by Reba McEntire, owner of the fictional tavern Happy’s Place. The sitcom reunites Peterman and McEntire, who first appeared together on Reba. “I think there is value in the second banana. There's value in the sidekick.” While fans see her as way more than just a sidekick, Peterman knows how rare it is to get a second chance with a hit sitcom. “It’s almost more precious because I know how rare it is to get a second chance with your best friend.” Busier than ever, Peterman also co-hosts Hallmark's Finding Mr. Christmas. “I would be really sad if I didn’t get to host a game show or go be with people. I genuinely like people.”
