Special recognition for our affiliated hospitals
University Health System: UT Health Science Center and University
Health System partnership named among the top 50 hospitals in the nation
for 3 specialties.
For the 7th consecutive year, University Hospital, the primary teaching hospital for The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, is the only San Antonio hospital to rank as one of U.S. News & World Report's best hospitals. The magazine evaluated 5,189 U.S. hospitals as part of its 17th annual "America's Best Hospitals" study. They found University to be one of just 176 hospitals - or about 3 percent - to meet the rigorous criteria to be recognized as a Top 50 hospital in at least one of 16 key medical/surgical specialties.
University Health System, in partnership with The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, is recognized as one of the Top 50 hospitals in the nation in three specialties - Heart/Heart Surgery, Orthopedics and Endocrinology (hormonal disorders, primarily diabetes care).
University Hospital brings home national
honors, again.
University Hospital, the leading civilian trauma center in Bexar County,
with physicians representing every medical specialty, meets the highest
national and state standards of trauma care and is designated as a
Level-I Trauma Center capable of providing care for the most seriously
injured trauma patients. The Emergency Center averages 70,000 emergency
patients each year.

CHRISTUS Santa Rosa -
In the Top One Percent
in the Nation - for SIX Years!
What it means
to be a Health Grades America's 50 Best Hospital:
It’s one thing to win an award. It’s quite another to receive
the HealthGrades Distinguished Hospital Award for Clinical
Excellence ™ six years in a row. CHRISTUS Santa Rosa is the
only hospital in San Antonio to receive such a distinction,
and one of only three hospitals in Texas to be so honored.
CHRISTUS Santa Rosa is rated in the top 5% of adult
hospitals nationally. Most importantly, the results come from
HealthGrades, the nation’s leading independent health care
ratings company.
Only one percent of the nation's hospitals achieve this each year. These hospitals are doing something very special. These hospitals are proof that providing top-notch medical care is possible. As our nation increasingly focuses on disparities in health care cost and quality, it is these elite, world-class facilities that will lead the way.
