The Mayo Clinic earned recognition by U.S. News & World Report as the top-ranked hospital in the country for gastroenterology and GI surgery.

Further, Mayo Clinic was at the top of the Honor Roll list.

“I feel proud to work with great colleagues who provide excellent and cutting-edge care,” Edward V. Loftus Jr., MD, told Healio Gastroenterology. “The award is also a testament to our extremely dedicated allied health staff. We try to follow the example of Doctors Mayo — ‘the best interest of the patient is the only interest to be considered, and in order that the sick may have the benefit of advancing knowledge, union of forces in necessary’.”

U.S. News & World Report ranked approximately 134 hospitals nationally in at least one specialty for the 2020 to 2021 year. Overall, U.S. News & World Report compared more than 4,500 medical centers across the country in 16 specialties and 10 procedures and conditions.
