Healthgrades honors Englewood Hospital for national excellence in cardiac, orthopedic, and surgical care, including multiple 5-star ratings and top-percentile recognitions.

October 28, 2025 — Englewood Hospital has been named one of America’s 50 Best Hospitals for Cardiac Surgery by Healthgrades, a trusted resource for Americans seeking information about doctors and hospitals. This recognition places Englewood Hospital among the top 5% in the nation for cardiac surgery.

The hospital was also recognized as one of America’s 100 Best Hospitals for Orthopedic Surgery for the third consecutive year, reflecting consistent excellence in joint replacement and fracture care.

In addition to these distinctions, Englewood Hospital received the Surgical Care Excellence Award for the third year in a row, placing it among the top 10% of hospitals nationwide for surgical care.

"Patients place great trust in us when they come here for surgery, and these recognitions affirm that their trust is well placed," said James McGinty, MD, chief of surgery and surgical services at Englewood Health. "We’re proud to deliver care that combines surgical expertise with compassion and personalized attention."

Englewood Hospital also received multiple 5-star ratings—the highest possible quality distinction—from Healthgrades for procedures including:

  • Valve surgery
  • Total knee replacement
  • Total hip replacement (two years in a row)
  • Hip fracture treatment (three years in a row)
  • Outpatient back and neck surgery

As part of its 2026 hospital assessment, Healthgrades evaluated risk-adjusted mortality and complication rates for over 30 of the most common conditions and procedures at approximately 4,500 hospitals nationwide to determine the top performers in specialty care.  

Healthgrades’ analysis revealed that if all hospitals as a group performed similarly to five-star hospitals during the 2022-2024 study period, on average, 230,466 lives could have been saved and 156,797 complications could have been avoided.
