In the field of bariatric care, the top hospitals excel in offering safe, effective weight-loss procedures led by skilled bariatric surgeons and specialists. Exceptional outcomes, patient satisfaction and safety records are key indicators of quality in this specialty.

Money’s 2024 ranking of the best hospitals for bariatric surgery prioritizes these attributes. Money also graded each facility on how transparent its prices are by comparing its publicly listed prices with the revenue it receives from patients. Our price transparency grade is unweighted and does not affect the order in which the hospital ranks, which is solely based on quality of care.

This year, 75 hospitals have been recognized for their excellence in bariatric care, each rigorously vetted by Money staff to ensure the highest standards. Our data partners Denniston Data and Definitive Healthcare played a crucial role in helping us gather and rank these statistics.
