U.S. News & World Report Rankings
Levine Children's Hospital was recently named a Best Children's Hospital by US News & World Report in five specialties: Cancer, Cardiology & Heart Surgery, Gastroenterology, Neonatology and Nephrology.
These rankings are evidence of our commitment to clinical excellence, and a level of service unmatched in the region. And we are equally proud of our Family Centered Care approach, where children and their families are our partners in healthcare—from prevention to diagnosis to treatment. It's a team-based approach that has positioned us as the most comprehensive children's hospital from Washington, DC to Atlanta in just six years. Together as One, we are transforming children's care.
