Your Richmond-area children’s hospital is nationally ranked!

Excited child pointing at U.S. News and World Report badges for 2020: cancer (#49), nephrology (#43), pulmonology (#29) and urology care (#29)

Four Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU specialties are nationally ranked by U.S. News & World Report!

CHoR has been ranked among the nation’s best children’s hospitals for cancer (#49), nephrology (#43), pulmonology (#29) and urology care (#29). We’re thrilled to receive these honors, not for the badges, but for the many kids across Virginia and beyond who turn to us for care.

This recognition is a humbling reminder of the work our team does each and every day to give kids the best shot at a healthy future,” said Elias Neujahr, CEO of CHoR. “We’re honored to be ranked among the nation’s best, not for the accolades, but for what access to this level of care means for kids right here in our community.”

This is the fifth time CHoR has ranked in nephrology; second for pulmonology; and first for cancer and urology. CHoR is the only hospital in Virginia that ranked in cancer care, nephrology and pulmonology.

“For 100 years, Children’s Hospital Foundation and the Greater Richmond community have prioritized the best possible care and outcomes for our children,” said Lauren Moore, president and CEO of Children’s Hospital Foundation. “Today, we’re so pleased to see that U.S. News & World Report is recognizing the outstanding care CHoR’s teams provide kids in our community because we continue to strive towards that same goal: the best possible chance at a healthy future. As we work together to build a new state-of-the-art facility to match the caliber work being done inside, we recognize that none of this would be possible without your support.”
