U.S. News & World Report Names Huntington Health, an Affiliate of Cedars-Sinai, Among the Top 10 Best Hospitals in California and Top Five Best Hospitals in Los Angeles for 2024-2025

Huntington Health, an affiliate of Cedars-Sinai, has been named by U.S. News & World Report as a 2024-2025 Best Hospital, ranking number ten in California* and number five in Los Angeles*, and was recognized in 24 types of care.

“We are thrilled to be recognized for our outstanding patient care in our city and state,” said Lori J. Morgan, MD, MBA, president and CEO, Huntington Health. “As the healthcare leader in the San Gabriel Valley, Huntington Health is committed to providing excellent clinical care with the best possible outcomes to support our community. This award would not be possible without the skilled, compassionate patient care from each, and every one of our nurses, physicians, and employees.”

Huntington Health received national recognition in gastroenterology and GI surgery (#42). The facility was named ‘high performing’ in seven adult specialties, including cancer, diabetes & endocrinology, geriatrics, neurology & neurosurgery, orthopedics, pulmonology & lung surgery, and urology.

In addition, Huntington Health was named ‘high performing’ in sixteen procedures and conditions, including: spinal fusion, heart failure, colon cancer surgery, COPD, diabetes, gynecological cancer, heart attack, hip replacement, hip fracture, kidney failure, knee replacement, leukemia, lymphoma & myeloma, pneumonia, prostate cancer surgery, stroke and transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).

Huntington also acknowledges the outstanding performance of our health system in this year’s U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals rankings. Cedars-Sinai Medical Center was named #1 (tie) in Los Angeles and #1 (tie) in California, and Torrance Memorial #4 in Los Angeles and #9 in California.

U.S. News evaluated nearly 5,000 hospitals across 15 specialties and 20 procedures and conditions; only 11% of evaluated hospitals earned a Best Hospitals ranking. Hospitals awarded a “Best” designation excelled at factors such as clinical outcomes, level of nursing care and patient experience.

“For 35 years, U.S. News has been a leading resource for patients navigating their health care decisions,” said Ben Harder, chief of health analysis and managing editor at U.S. News. “A ‘Best Hospital’ recognition empowers patients to seek out medical care from the best of the best to treat their illness or condition.”

To calculate the Best Hospitals rankings, U.S. News evaluated each hospital’s performance on objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications and level of nursing care. The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology measure patient outcomes using data from millions of records provided by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. This year, among other methodology refinements, U.S. News incorporated new data on care provided to patients with Medicare Advantage insurance and on care provided to outpatients, nearly doubling the number of patients included in its annual data analysis. The Procedures & Conditions ratings are based entirely on objective quality measures.
