“We are proud to be recognized as New York’s No. 1 children’s hospital by the New York Daily News and to be the only hospital in New York ranked in all 10 pediatric specialties by U.S. News,” said Dr. Steven J. Corwin, president and CEO of NewYork-Presbyterian. “NewYork-Presbyterian is committed to delivering exceptional, compassionate care to every child and their family and to offering the most innovative, advanced treatments.”

The U.S. News “Best Children’s Hospitals” rankings rely on clinical data and on an annual survey of pediatric specialists. The rankings methodology factors in patient outcomes, clinical resources and compliance with best practices.
