Willis Knighton Health named to Newsweek’s Best-in-State Hospitals 2027

Willis Knighton Health has been named to Newsweek’s list of America’s Best-In-State Hospitals 2027. It is the highest ranked hospital in North Louisiana to make the list.

“This is an extraordinary achievement that reflects the dedication, expertise and compassion of our entire Willis Knighton team,” says Jaf Fielder, president and CEO of Willis Knighton. “Every day, thousands of people across our organization work together with one goal in mind: providing exceptional care to the patients and families who place their trust in us. This recognition is a testament to that commitment. While awards and rankings are certainly gratifying, what matters most is the difference we make in people’s lives, every single day.”

The ranking of America’s Best-in-State Hospitals 2027 recognizes 800 leading hospitals across the nation. Hospitals were evaluated on four data pillars: hospital quality metrics, reputation, patient experience and patient recorded outcome measures. Hospitals were selected based on medical performance indicators that included low mortality, complication and readmission rates, as well as recommendations from medical professionals and patient survey results.

While the report cites Willis Knighton North, the award covers all Willis Knighton hospitals since they are operated as a single entity with multiple locations and statistical data for all is reported under that name.

The list was developed to provide patients with a comprehensive resource to help make informed healthcare decisions.
