More than 150 years of quality
Mayo Clinic’s commitment to quality dates back more than 150 years to when the Mayo brothers invented the team-based approach to medicine – an approach that is continually evolving. Mayo Clinic’s experts work across specialties to provide comprehensive and coordinated care for patients with the most serious and complex conditions.
This U.S. News & World Report honor follows a recent Mayo Clinic report, Remarkable Moments of Sharing that provides insight into what makes a top hospital and highlights Mayo’s effect on the economy, health system and patients.
“The No. 1 ranking is again exciting news for Jacksonville and Florida as we build out Mayo Clinic’s future as a destination medical center,” Dr. Farrugia says. “We are investing heavily in people, space and technology on Mayo Clinic’s Florida campus to ensure Mayo Clinic, our region and state leads the future of medicine.”
This is the 28th year that U.S. News & World Report conducted a rankings list, which encompasses 16 medical specialties. U.S. News & World Report analyzes data for 4,500 medical centers to determine the rankings announced today on.
