U.S. News & World Report Names St. Vincent’s Medical Center High Performing in 3 Specialties


Bridgeport – St. Vincent’s Medical Center was rated as “high performing” in heart failure, heart attack and stroke for 2023-24 by U.S. News & World Report.

The rankings and ratings from U.S. News are designed to assist patients and their doctors in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or for common elective procedures.

“I am proud of the devoted colleagues at St. Vincent’s who have dedicated their care to patients. I am not surprised by the recognition, I see the wonderful work happening every day,” said William M. Jennings, president of Hartford HealthCare Fairfield Region. “It’s affirming to see our care validated by U.S. News & World Report. Fairfield County is privileged to have such a resource as St. Vincent’s in our community.”

For the 2023-24 rankings and ratings, U.S. News evaluated nearly 5,000 medical centers nationwide in 15 specialties and 21 procedures and conditions. In the 15 specialty areas, 164 hospitals were ranked in at least one specialty. In rankings by state and metro area, U.S. News recognized hospitals as high performing across multiple areas of care. The U.S. News Best Hospitals methodologies in most areas of care are based largely on objective measures such as risk-adjusted survival and discharge-to-home rates, volume, and quality of nursing, among other care-related indicators.
