Children’s Hospital Colorado among nation’s best pediatric facilities

BROOMFIELD —  Aurora-based Children’s Hospital Colorado, a network of hospitals and clinics in the state, including its north campus and therapy center in Broomfield, has been named to U.S. News & World Report’s 2018-19 Best Children’s Hospitals Honor Roll.

The ranking of the top 50 pediatric facilities nationwide is based on clinical data, outcomes and peer reputation.

Children’s Colorado received high marks in all 10 ranked subspecialties, including five in the top 10: neonatology, No. 4; diabetes and endocrinology, No. 7; gastroenterology and GI surgery, No. 7; pulmonology, No. 7; and cancer, No. 8.  

Children’s Colorado’s north campus in Broomfield offers services in gastroerology, cancer, urology and orthopedics.

“Our dedication to kids is constant and tireless — and it shows,” said Jena Hausmann, president and chief executive of Children’s Colorado. She said Children’s Hospital in the past year cared for children from all 50 states and more than 35 countries.

Hospitals and clinics are ranked in 10 pediatric specialties: cancer, cardiology and heart surgery, diabetes and endocrinology, gastroenterology and gastrointestinal surgery, neonatology, nephrology, neurology and neurosurgery, orthopedics, pulmonology and urology.

This year’s rankings will be published in the U.S. News & World Report’s “Best Hospitals 2019″ guidebook, available late September.
