Hospital Honor Roll

Here's who ranked top of their class

Each year U.S News curates a list ranking the best of the best hospitals throughout the United States. There's a lot that goes into the ranking but this list is a great resource to see which hospitals are knocking it out of the park. The majority of these hospitals are academically affiliated and often times have travel positions or have had them in the past. I've worked in four of the hospitals on the list and will give you all the nitty gritty on how they shape up in my humble yet totally accurate opinion.
