It's making sure you and your child have the best possible experience, whether it's making an appointment or having a complex surgery. As a top children's hospital ranked by U.S. News & World Report, we know kids often have the biggest hearts, the biggest fears and even bigger dreams. We're also among the top medical centers according to The Leapfrog Group, a national organization focused on healthcare safety and quality. They've graded us an "A" for quality and safety and have named us a Top Teaching Hospital , which puts us in the top 10 percent of hospitals graded. We provide compassionate care in more than 30 specialties, with a dedicated pediatric emergency department, neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) and consolidated outpatient clinics at our Battle Building in Charlottesville.
