For the second year in-a-row, Saint Agnes Medical Center has been named a Best Regional Hospital 2025-2026 by U.S. News & World Report.
Saint Agnes was also named by U.S. News & World Report to its 2025-2026 Best Hospitals as a High Performing hospital in thirteen categories – the highest distinction a hospital can earn for Procedures & Conditions ratings. Saint Agnes ranked in: Aortic Valve Surgery (AVR), Congestive Heart Failure, Diabetes, Heart Arrhythmia, Heart Attack, Hip Fracture, Kidney Failure, Leukemia, Lymphoma & Myeloma, Pacemaker Implantation, Pneumonia, Prostate Cancer Surgery, Spinal Fusion, and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR).
Last, but certainly not least, Saint Agnes once again received the award for Best Regional Hospital for Community Access 2025-2026 by U.S. News & World Report. Hospitals in this category were recognized for excellent performance in both quality and measures related to access to care for historically underserved communities.
“It is a tremendous honor to be named one of the nation’s top hospitals for the second year in-a-row. The ceaseless dedication of our colleagues and physicians to carry out our healing mission by providing the highest quality care for our patients deserves every ounce of recognition,” said Saint Agnes Medical Center President and Market Leader, Gurvinder Kaur, MD.
“For more than three decades, U.S. News has been an invaluable guide for patients,” said Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News. “Hospitals designated as ‘High Performing’ by U.S. News demonstrate a consistent ability to provide excellent care for particular medical procedures and conditions, showcasing their specialized expertise as well as dedication to exceptional patient outcomes.”
The annual 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 evaluated more than 4,400 hospitals across 15 adult specialties and 22 procedures and conditions; only one third 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.
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 over 800 million records of patient care.
