Top-Ranked Hospitals for Ear, Nose & Throat
Nearly 700 hospitals are listed in Ear, Nose & Throat. All are experienced in treating difficult cases—a hospital is listed only if at least 25 inpatients in need of a high level of expertise in this specialty were treated there in 2008, 2009, and 2010 or if enough specialists recommended the hospital for such patients.
