Wills Eye Once Again Ranked A Premier Hospital in U.S.

 

 
Wills Eye has maintained its top tier ranking on U.S. News & World Report’s annual “Best Hospitals” Survey. For the 32nd consecutive year, Philadelphia’s specialty eye hospital was selected by ophthalmologists as one of the best places to refer patients who have the most complex eye diseases.

“It is a tremendous honor to be continuously recognized and trusted by our peers as one of the country’s very best eye hospitals. Our talented medical staff work tirelessly to remain on the cutting edge of ophthalmology and are the reason patients from all over the world get referred to Wills Eye Hospital,” said Julia A. Haller, MD, Ophthalmologist-in-Chief, Wills Eye Hospital. “Congratulations to everyone at Wills Eye and kudos to our peers who made this year’s U.S. News & World Report list.”
