Cedars-Sinai has been named to the Honor Roll for the eighth consecutive year and tied for #1 in California and Los Angeles in U.S. News & World Report’s "Best Hospitals 2023-24" rankings.  

The U.S. News rankings, released Tuesday, are based on patient outcomes, patient experience, technology, reputation (according to surveyed physicians) and a variety of other health-related measures.

Departing from previous practice, U.S. News announced its top Honor Roll hospitals but did not rank them in order as in the past.  This year, U.S. News selected 22 hospitals for the Honor Roll based on their high rankings in multiple specialties and other factors. The digital media company also ranked clinical specialties nationally but did not provide numerical rankings at the state and local levels. Based on data, however, many of Cedars-Sinai’s clinical specialties were the best in California and Los Angeles.

Five Cedars-Sinai specialties ranked #1 in California (highest U.S. News ranking in the state):

• Cardiology, Heart & Vascular Surgery
• Gastroenterology & GI Surgery
• Orthopedics
• Pulmonology & Lung Surgery
• Urology

Each of these specialties also ranked #1 in Los Angeles (highest U.S. News ranking in the county), along with Neurology & Neurosurgery and Obstetrics & Gynecology.

In total, Cedars-Sinai had 11 specialties ranked nationally. This means that Cedars-Sinai is among the top hospitals in the nation in those clinical areas (nationwide rankings are provided in parentheses):

• Cardiology, Heart & Vascular Surgery (#2)
• Gastroenterology & GI Surgery (#2)
• Orthopedics (#2)
• Pulmonology & Lung Surgery (#2)
• Neurology & Neurosurgery (#5)
• Urology (#5)
• Diabetes & Endocrinology (#7, tied)
• Obstetrics & Gynecology (#7)
• Geriatrics (#8)
• Cancer (#14)
