• Mayo Clinic recognized as ‘World’s Best Hospital’ by Newsweek for the seventh straight year

Newsweek named Mayo Clinic the No. 1 hospital in its annual list of the "World's Best Hospitals" for the seventh consecutive year. The rankings were released on Wednesday, Feb. 26.


Mayo Clinic has again received the No. 1 ranking in Newsweek's list of the "World's Best Hospitals." This is the seventh straight year Mayo Clinic has received the top ranking.

"This continued recognition is a tribute to our dedicated staff who consistently deliver unparalleled, compassionate care to our patients," says Gianrico Farrugia, M.D., president and CEO of Mayo Clinic. "We remain committed to delivering Category-of-One experiences for each patient who seeks our care while simultaneously working to transform healthcare to enable more care and more cures to reach more people."

The annual Newsweek rankings are based on patient survey results, an international survey of more than 85,000 healthcare professionals, key performance metrics — such as patient safety and quality of care — and implementation of patient-reported outcomes.

Newsweek's latest recognition of Mayo Clinic comes as the organization makes continued and significant investments to transform healthcare for all including through Mayo Clinic Platform, seamlessly integrating physical spaces and digital capabilities and harnessing artificial intelligence, robotics and automation to meet patients' unmet and evolving needs.
