Newsweek ranked Toronto General Hospital No. 7 on its list of the world's top 10 hospitals.
Toronto General Hospital (TGH) is the largest and most funded research organization in the country and the largest transplant center in North America.
As the University of Toronto's teaching hospital, the facility conducted a number of transplant studies in 2015, including three organ transplants (lung, liver and pancreas). TGH is home to the Peter Munk Cardiology Centre (named after the founder of Canadian mining company Barrick Gold, who donated more than $175 million), a world leader in open heart and cardiovascular surgery.
It should be noted that the hospitals in the top ten not only provide first-class care to their patients, but also determine the future of medicine.
At the top of the list is the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, which has a history of more than 150 years. The institution has 57 research centers that generate vital innovations for the entire global medical community. It is followed by the Cleveland Clinic, the place where the world's first full face transplant was performed, and its cardiovascular surgery program is considered the best in America. In third place is Singapore General Hospital, the oldest hospital in Singapore, founded in 1821. It is the island's largest health care system, serving more than 1 million patients annually.
The Baltimore-based Johns Hopkins Hospital is a leader in neurosurgery and child psychiatry. It was also the first hospital in the United States to perform gender reassignment surgery. Charité is a hospital in Berlin with almost 14,000 employees, including more than half of Germany's Nobel laureates in physiology and medicine. The hospital is more than 300 years old, and today it is ahead of other hospitals in the field of biomedical engineering.
The second top five is Massachusetts General Hospital, located in Boston. It is a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School. The institution has an annual research budget of more than $912 million. Current projects focus on the opioid epidemic and the impact of socioeconomic status on health. The University of Tokyo Hospital is at No. 8 in the top 10.
