We're recognized as "High Performing" in seven areas

GW Hospital has been named among U.S. News & World Report’s 2025-2026 Best Hospitals edition for our specialty care in Neurology and Neurosurgery.

We also received recognition as a “High Performing” hospital for six procedures and conditions: heart failure, diabetes, kidney failure, leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma; stroke and arrhythmia. This is the highest distinction a hospital can earn as part of U.S. News’ Best Hospitals Procedures & Conditions ratings. U.S. News bestows the designation to recognize performance that is significantly better than the national average.

U.S. News’ annual Specialty and Procedures & Conditions ratings are designed to assist patients and their health care providers in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or elective procedures.

“U.S. News & World Report has proudly recognized GW Hospital as a high performing institution in neurology and neurosurgery, along with several key adult procedures and conditions,” said Ulises Torres, MD, Chief Quality Officer at GW Hospital. “Our excellence in treating diabetes, heart arrhythmia, heart failure, kidney failure, leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma, and stroke highlights our dedication to quality patient care. This recognition reflects our commitment to outstanding healthcare, and we couldn't be prouder of these accomplishments in vital specialties.”

Neurology and neurosurgery are part of our premier neurological center, the Neurosciences Institute (NI). Patients with the most complex disorders affecting the nervous system come to the NI for comprehensive interdisciplinary care.

U.S. News evaluated more than 4.400 hospitals across 15 adult specialties and 22 procedures and conditions; only one third of them earned an award. To determine the Best Hospitals, U.S. News analyzed each hospital’s performance based on objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications and level of nursing care. The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology measure patient outcomes using data from more than 800 million records of patient care.
