JHAH Infectious Diseases Expert Wins Lifetime Achievement Award for Vaccinology Research
May 18, 2026
An ACS surgical quality program designated JHAH as a Meritorious Hospital, meaning patients are assured of first-class surgical care and safety.
Johns Hopkins Aramco Healthcare (JHAH) has been named as one of the top surgical care providers in the Middle East in a ranking by the American College of Surgeons (ACS).
JHAH was designated as a Meritorious Hospital in both clinical categories assessed by the ACS National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP), which measures outcomes from inpatient and outpatient procedures from more than 600 hospitals globally.
The designation means that JHAH is the only hospital in Saudi Arabia — and one of just three hospitals in the Middle East — to be awarded Meritorious Hospital status by the ACS NSQIP in both clinical categories. One category considers performance across all surgical cases, and the other, in high-risk cases specifically.
