Why MD Anderson?
For the past 19 years, MD Anderson has been ranked in the top two Cancer Care hospitals in the nation, according to the annual “Best Hospitals” survey published by U.S.News & World Report. Over the past nine years alone, MD Anderson has held the number one rank six times, a testament to the dedicated staff and volunteers and to the high quality of care and services available to patients.
MD Anderson has been ranked as one of the United States’ top two cancer hospitals since U.S.News & World Report began the survey in 1990. In 2009, MD Anderson surpassed its subspecialty rankings of previous years with top listings in ear, nose and throat (2), urology (9), gynecology (12), digestive disorders (23) and diabetes and endocrine disorders (41).
The U.S.News & World Report “Best Hospitals” rankings are based on a reputation survey of board-certified physician specialists around the nation, nurse-to-patient ratios and certain technologies and services available to patients and the community.
