Quirónsalud Málaga, Best Private Hospital in Andalusia According to Newsweek's 'World Best Hospitals 2026' Ranking

Quirónsalud Málaga Hospital once again positions itself among the major international health benchmarks and as the best private hospital in Andalusia according to the World's Best Hospitals 2026 ranking by Newsweek magazine. In its eighth edition, the ranking highlights fourteen Quirónsalud hospitals, eleven in Spain and three in Colombia.

This classification is built from a comprehensive evaluation process that combines the opinions of tens of thousands of healthcare professionals from 32 countries with other metrics that were given more relevance in this eighth edition, such as hospital quality indicators, safety data, patient experience, and a survey on the implementation of PROMs (Patient Reported Outcome Measures).

The report also includes a list of the top 100 hospitals in each country. In Spain, Quirónsalud has eleven centers among the most prominent, ten of which are located in the national 'top 50': Hospital Universitario Fundación Jiménez Díaz (9th), Hospital Ruber Internacional (14th), Centro Médico Teknon (16th), Hospital Quirónsalud Barcelona (20th), Hospital Universitario Quirónsalud Madrid (29th), Hospital Universitari Dexeus (31st), Hospital Universitari Sagrat Cor (35th), Hospital Quirónsalud Málaga (36th), Hospital Quirónsalud Sagrado Corazón (43rd), Hospital Universitario Rey Juan Carlos (48th) and Hospital Universitario La Luz (92nd).
