Best in the West and No. 5 in the Nation
Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center ranks as one of the top five American hospitals - and the best hospital in the western United States for the 23rd consecutive year - according to a U.S.News & World Report survey that reviewed patient-outcomes data, reputation among physicians and other care-related factors.
The rankings are currently available online at www.usnews.com/besthospitals.

Services in Santa Monica Continue to Expand
With the exception of organ transplantation, all of the services offered at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Westwood are now available at UCLA Medical Center, Santa Monica. Some services — including geriatrics, general surgery, orthopaedic/spine surgery, cardiology, neurology, radiology and pain management — have been offered at the Santa Monica campus of UCLA Health System for several years. New UCLA services at Santa Monica include general medicine, general pediatrics, advanced gastroenterology endoscopy (including ERCP and endoscopic ultrasound), oncology services, and specialty surgical services such as cardiothoracic, breast, colorectal, and head and neck.
Whether patients are treated at UCLA Health System’s community clinics or hospitals in Westwood or Santa Monica, they receive the same exceptional care and compassion for which UCLA is known. Earlier this year, a nationally known rating agency for hospital quality named the Santa Monica facility a “distinguished hospital for clinical excellence.”
