Oncology, orthopedics and pediatrics were also ranked among the best in the world.

“We are honored to be recognized by Newsweek as the world’s top hospital for heart care,” said Lars Svensson, M.D., Ph.D., chairman of Cleveland Clinic’s Heart, Vascular & Thoracic Institute. “This ranking reflects the expertise of our caregivers, who are dedicated to providing the highest quality care for our patients.
