McLean ranked third nationally in psychiatry, while Spaulding ranked 14 th in rehabilitation and was again the only New England rehabilitation hospital making the ranking. They have earned their longstanding reputation for providing the very best medical care, and we thank and congratulate them for their excellence. There will always be debate about surveys like this, but we are pleased to have been recognized once again. Partners HealthCare, founded in 1994 by MGH and BWH, offers patients a continuum of coordinated, high-quality care. Partners includes primary care and specialty physicians, community hospitals, the two founding academic medical centers, specialty facilities, community health centers, and other health-related organizations.

The Massachusetts General Hospital, established in 1811, is the original and largest teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School. In 1994, the MGH joined with Brigham and Women's Hospital to form Partners HealthCare System, an integrated health care delivery system comprising the two academic medical centers, specialty and community hospitals, a network of physician groups and nonacute and home health services.
