Boston, MA, July 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH), the founding members of Mass General Brigham, earned high marks in multiple specialties by U.S. News & World Report – with MGH earning the #8 spot on the Honor Roll of America’s Best Hospitals and Brigham and Women’s earning the #14 spot.
Of note this year, Brigham and Women’s is #1 in obstetrics and gynecology in the nation and McLean Hospital is #1 in psychiatry in the nation. These top honors come amid dual crises in mental health and access to women’s healthcare.
“Having multiple nationally ranked hospitals, specialties, as well as outstanding regional rankings is a remarkable achievement,” said Anne Klibanski, MD, President and CEO of Mass General Brigham. “We are immensely proud of the research and innovation across our system and, most of all, of the quality of care and empathy that our staff delivers every day to patients and their families, especially in these unprecedented times.”
Mass General Brigham remains the only health system nationwide with five nationally ranked hospitals. For more than 30 years, hospital rankings have been used to help patients across the nation find the best hospital for their needs, according to U.S. News & World Report.
In addition to McLean Hospital, two other Mass General Brigham specialty hospitals also received extraordinary honors. Spaulding Rehabilitation was #1 in New England and ranked #3 in the nation for rehabilitation, marking the 5th year Spaulding has been a top three ranked hospital. Spaulding is the only rehabilitation hospital in New England ranked by U.S. News & World Report since 1995. Mass Eye and Ear (MEE) is #1 for otolaryngology (ear, nose, and throat care) and ophthalmology in New England. MEE ranked #4 for both otolaryngology and ophthalmology in the nation.
In total, nine unique specialties at MGH and BWH were recognized in the top 10 nationally:

For the 2022-23 rankings, U.S. News & World Report compared nearly 5,000 medical centers nationwide across 15 adult specialties and 20 procedures and conditions. Survival rates, patient safety, specialized staff, and hospital reputation were contributing factors in the rankings. 
These rankings and honors for Mass General Brigham’s academic medical centers, specialty hospitals, and community hospitals validate the ongoing work to create the world’s leading patient-centered academic health system.
