Newsweek Names Holy Name One of America’s Best Maternity Hospitals in 2026

Holy Name is proud to announce it has been named to Newsweek’s America’s Best Maternity Hospitals list in 2026, recognizing the medical center for providing exceptional care to mothers, newborns, and families. The list was released on April 22, 2026, and can be viewed on Newsweek.com.

Holy Name's Maternity Child Health Center offers a distinct family-centered approach to care, with advanced medical expertise, specialized support classes, and newly renovated, state-of-the-art private suites. Board-certified obstetricians/gynecologists, anesthesiologists, pediatricians, perinatologists and neonatologists are available on-site 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Holy Name also offers extensive educational programs as well as expanded lactation services, from pregnancy through delivery. Last month, Holy Name announced the appointment of Andrea Hubschmann, MD, MBA, FACOG, as Chair of the Obstetrics and Gynecology (OB/GYN). Dr. Hubschmann brings more than 15 years of experience in obstetric and gynecologic care, a proven track record in quality and safety leadership, and a deep commitment to education and the long-term health of the communities she serves.

High-quality maternity care, provided from pregnancy through childbirth and the postpartum period, is essential to the long-term health of mothers and newborns. As maternity care remains a major component of healthcare, Newsweek and Statista, the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider, have partnered to identify America’s Best Maternity Hospitals in 2026.

The America’s Best Maternity Hospitals 2026 recognition was based on a national review of hospital quality metrics, patient survey results, and a survey of healthcare professionals and hospital managers who offered their top recommendations for the leading maternity hospitals.

"Recognition from Newsweek underscores Holy Name’s unwavering commitment to providing accessible, high-quality care throughout every stage of pregnancy and beyond," said Michael Maron, President and CEO of Holy Name. "It is a testament to the expertise and compassion of our physicians, nurses, and staff, and to the trust families place in us during life’s most meaningful moments."
