THE WORLD'S BEST SPECIALIZED HOSPITALS 2024

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.
