Top Ranked Teaching Hospitals in the Great Plains Region

Only 164 hospitals, out of more than 5,000 hospitals in the U.S., earned national recognition in at least one of the 15 adult specialties examined in the most recent (23-24) U.S. News & World Report survey of American hospitals.  While several Great Plains region teaching hospitals earned national recognition in at least one adult specialty, only three teaching hospitals in the region earned a top 50 national ranking in five or more adult specialty areas.  Two of those hospitals, the Mayo Clinic and Barnes-Jewish Hospital, also earned a spot in the survey's honor roll of the very best hospitals in the nation.  Here's a quick look at these three institutions and the adult specialty area ratings that make them the top-ranked teaching hospitals in the Great Plains region:
