Top Rated Teaching Hospitals in the Southeast

In the most recent (25-26) U.S. News & World Report (USNWR) survey of U.S. hospitals, 152 hospitals earned national distinction in at least one of the 15 adult specialties studied in the survey.  Only one teaching hospital in the twelve-state Southeast region, AdventHealth Orlando, earned a spot in the survey's honor roll of the top hospitals in the nation. However, seven Southeast teaching hospitals in total earned a top 50 national rating in five or more adult specialties rated in the survey. For attaining such recognition in the latest USNWR survey, these seven institutions stand out as the top-rated teaching hospitals in the Southeast:

  1. That’s an impressive showing for the Southeast, especially considering only AdventHealth Orlando made the national honor roll. It’s interesting how certain specialties, like Ear, Nose & Throat, appear so often among the top rankings across different hospitals. Feels a bit like Escape Road—each hospital navigating tricky turns and obstacles, but only a few making it all the way to the top without crashing.
