The magazine's annual "World's Best Hospitals" survey, posted on Newsweek's website on Wednesday, cited Sheba's superior health care, in addition to its medical innovation and cutting-edge research.
The annual ranking was extensive, going from 1,000 hospitals in 2019 to 2,000 in 2021. Despite doubling the number of participating hospitals, Sheba still placed among the top 10.
"To be nominated and ranked among the Top 10 World's Best Hospitals for three consecutive years, underscores Israel's image as a small country with world-class medicine and what we call 'Sheba Global Impact,'" Professor Yitshak Kreiss, CEO of Sheba Medical Center, the largest facility of its kind in Israel and the Middle East, said in a press release.
"This honor is also a testament to our dedicated staff, which has worked tirelessly to utilize cutting-edge medical treatments, treating patients from all walks of life during these challenging times, offering hope without boundaries," he added.
Sheba is located on a 200-acre campus and is home to 11 of Israel's national health centers, four hospitals, two institutes, expansive research laboratories, 159 medical departments and clinics and diverse educational facilities.
