Medanta – The Medicity, operated by Global Health Limited, has been ranked the No.1 hospital in India in Newsweek’s prestigious ‘World’s Best Hospitals 2026’ rankings, conducted in partnership with Statista Inc.. The hospital has featured among the world’s leading healthcare institutions for the seventh consecutive year.
The 2026 rankings assessed over 2,500 hospitals across 32 countries, including India, Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. The evaluation was based on recommendations from thousands of medical experts, patient experience data, hospital quality metrics and a Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) Implementation Survey, ensuring a comprehensive and patient-centric assessment.
Dr. Naresh Trehan, Chairman and Managing Director of Medanta, said the recognition reflects the institution’s commitment to clinical excellence, innovation and patient-centric care. “We continue to pioneer advanced therapies, adopt cutting-edge technologies and improve outcomes while making world-class healthcare accessible to all, in line with our philosophy ‘Har Ek Jaan Anmol’,” he said. Medanta has strengthened its focus on AI, robotics and automation to enhance clinical outcomes and patient experience.
In Bhutan, the recognition is expected to boost cross-border patient inflow, as Bhutanese patients increasingly seek advanced tertiary care in India, positioning Medanta as a preferred destination for specialised treatment in the region.
