AdventHealth for Children earns top ranking in U.S.

U.S. News & World Report ranked AdventHealth for Children as one of the top neonatology programs in the country in the 2020-21 Best Children’s Hospitals rankings.

AdventHealth for Children ranked No. 32 nationally and best for neonatology in Florida.

The 14th annual Best Children’s Hospitals rankings recognize the top 50 pediatric facilities across the country in 10 pediatric specialties: cancer, cardiology and heart surgery, diabetes and endocrinology, gastroenterology and gastrointestinal surgery, neonatology, nephrology, neurology and neurosurgery, orthopedics, pulmonology and lung surgery, and urology.

“AdventHealth for Children is committed to providing world-class, whole-person care for children and their families close to home in Central Florida,” said Dr. Rajan Wadhawan, senior executive officer of AdventHealth for Children and a board-certified neonatologist. “Ranking among the top 50 programs for newborn care for the third consecutive year is a recognition of that commitment. Our incredible team of talented physicians, nurses, other staff and volunteers — who care for more than 2,000 babies in our neonatal intensive care units each year — continue to demonstrate their compassion and unmatched skill year after year.”

U.S. News introduced the Best Children’s Hospitals rankings in 2007 to help families of children with rare or life-threatening illnesses find the best medical care available.
