Newton-Wellesley Hospital Climbs In U.S. News & World Report Rankings

NEWTON, MA – Newton-Wellesley Hospital has climbed one spot in U.S. News & World Report’s 2023-2024 Best Hospitals rankings released last week.

The hospital is ranked #6 overall in the Boston Metro Area and #8 in Massachusetts, one spot higher than in the 2022-2023 rankings in both categories and tied with Brigham & Women’s Faulkner Hospital.

Newton-Wellesley has also been named “High Performing” in the treatment of nine specialties. The “High Performing” designation is the highest award a hospital can earn in the publisher’s Common Adult Procedure and Condition Ratings.

“Our employees and physicians are deeply committed to providing safe, high-quality care, and passionate about effectively and compassionately supporting our patients’ health and well-being,” Ellen Moloney, president and chief operating officer of Newton-Wellesley Hospital, said in a statement. “To be recognized once again by U.S. News & World Report is a proud accomplishment for all of us and a testament to our teams’ hard work and dedication to serving our community.”

U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 hospitals across 15 specialties and 21 procedures and conditions; only 12% of evaluated hospitals earned a Best Hospitals ranking. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care and patient experience.

Mass General Brigham has five hospitals nationally recognized in U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals rankings, including Massachusetts General Hospital, McLean Hospital, Spaulding Rehabilitation, and Mass Eye and Ear.
