Medanta – The Medicity, Gurugram, 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, reinforcing its leadership in India’s private healthcare sector.
The 2026 rankings evaluated over 2,500 hospitals across 32 countries, including India, Australia, Canada, Germany, Japan, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United States. The assessment 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 evaluation framework. Dr. Naresh Trehan, Chairman and Managing Director, Medanta, said the recognition reflects the group’s commitment to clinical excellence, innovation and accessible care. He said the hospital continues to pioneer advanced therapies and adopt cutting-edge technologies in line with its philosophy, “Har Ek Jaan Anmol” (Every Life Is Invaluable).
Medanta has strengthened investments in AI, robotics and automation, integrating advanced infrastructure to enhance outcomes, research and digital transformation.
In Bhutan, the global recognition is likely to strengthen Medanta’s appeal among Bhutanese patients seeking specialised tertiary care in India, supporting growth in cross-border medical travel and expanding its regional healthcare footprint.
