St. Luke's Hospital Named One of the Best Hospitals for Maternity by U.S. News & World Report

Chesterfield, Mo. , December 7, 2021
St. Luke’s Hospital has been named one of the Best Hospitals for Maternity by U.S. News & World Report. In its inaugural list of Best Hospitals for Maternity, U.S. News has recognized St. Luke’s as “High Performing” in caring for patients with uncomplicated pregnancies. 

“Being named a ‘High Performing’ hospital on the Best Hospitals for Maternity list is exciting because it shines a spotlight on the high-quality, compassionate care expectant families receive when they choose to deliver their babies at St. Luke’s Hospital,” said Daniel Wagner, MD, St. Luke’s Hospital chief – department of OB/GYN. “Our healthcare team is committed to providing excellence in maternity care during one of life’s most precious experiences.” 

To be recognized among the Best Hospitals for Maternity, hospitals had to excel on multiple quality metrics that matter to expectant families, including complication rates, C-sections, whether births were scheduled too early in pregnancy and how successfully each hospital supported breastfeeding. The evaluation reflects 2019 hospital data related to uncomplicated pregnancies.
