U.S. News & World Report rankings recognize Boston Medical Center’s world-class clinical care across multiple specialties, procedures and conditions including Alzheimer’s care

BOSTON – Boston Medical Center’s (BMC) Geriatrics program has been named one of the 50 best in the country in this year’s rankings from U.S. News & World Report, based on its leadership in Alzheimer's care and treatment and recognition from the National Institute on Aging for exceptional patient care and serving as one of two Alzheimer's Disease Centers in Massachusetts. The equity-led academic medical center was also recognized for an additional six high-performing specialties. Cancer; Cardiology, Heart and Vascular Surgery; Gastroenterology and GI Surgery; Neurology and Neurosurgery; Pulmonary and Lung Surgery; and Urology. Additionally, BMC was designated high performing in conditions and procedures for Heart Failure and Kidney Failure.

“This year’s U.S. News & World Report rankings reflect Boston Medical Center’s overall commitment to providing innovative, world-class care for our patients at every stage of life,” said BMC President Anthony Hollenberg. “At BMC, we deliver extraordinary and empathetic solutions, including cutting-edge research, deepened access to high-quality care, and connecting more diverse people to novel clinical trials and therapies. Our expert clinicians work closely with patients to design comprehensive, personalized treatment plans that improve quality of life and help them to thrive.”

U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals specialty rankings identify hospitals that excel in treating complex, high-risk cases and rare conditions. Hospitals that receive a “best” ranking have excellent clinical outcomes, expert patient care, and high opinions from peer physicians.

BMC’s nationally recognized Geriatrics program serves a patient population over 70 with a new model for geriatric care that emphasizes timely diagnosis, equitable and expert intervention, and patient education. The program increases access to essential care and holistically integrates patient care and caregiver support.

BMC has been designated one of 24 Centers of Excellence in Geriatrics nationwide for innovations in aging research and geriatric medicine. The hospital’s Geriatrics Home Care program, established in 1875 and the nation’s oldest continually operating in-home medical service, brings world-class medical care right to patients’ homes.
