News July 14, 2014

Temple University Hospital has once again been recognized by U.S. News & World Report as being among the best hospitals in the region. Temple was also identified as a "high performer" in the following six specialties:

  • Cardiology & Heart Surgery
  • Gastroenterology & GI Surgery
  • Gynecology
  • Nephrology
  • Neurology & Neurosurgery
  • Pulmonology

Less than 10 percent of all hospitals nationwide are recognized for high performance.
 
"It is a great honor for Temple to continue to be recognized in this way," said John N. Kastanis, FACHE, President & CEO of Temple University Hospital. "This speaks volumes about the skill and expertise of the entire healthcare team at Temple and only serves to deepen our commitment to providing the highest quality clinical care and specialty programs to our patients."
