- Ranked among U.S. News & World Report’s America’s Best Hospitals for 15 consecutive years, this year in geriatric care
- One of The Leapfrog Group’s 37 Top Hospitals for quality and patient safety
For the third consecutive year, Lehigh Valley Hospital ranks among the nation’s best for saving the lives of heart attack patients.

Lehigh Valley Hospital received recognition in 2008 as the nation’s top hospital for heart attack survival, and as the top hospital in Pennsylvania for heart attack survival in both the 2009 and 2010 report.
This recognition for heart attack care is one of many honors Lehigh Valley Hospital has received this year.
