Cape Fear Valley Medical Center has been named by U.S. News & World Report as a 2025-2026 Best Hospital.
Cape Fear Valley Health ranked No. 20 in the state among U.S. News’ latest edition of Best Hospitals. This year, U.S. News announced 504 Best Regional Hospitals across 49 states and 95 metro areas that have demonstrated superior outcomes. Cape Fear Valley Medical Center was also recognized as a Best Regional Hospital for Community Access. Additionally, it was named a High Performing hospital for eight procedures or conditions: Abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, heart failure, hip fracture, kidney failure, pacemaker implantation and stroke.
“We are pleased to receive this recognition from U.S. News & World Report. Providing exceptional healthcare for all our patients has always been our top priority,” said Mike Nagowski, CEO of Cape Fear Valley Health, in a press release. “Our team of caregivers is committed to the highest standards for quality and safety, and this recognition is a result of that commitment.”

To determine the Best Hospitals, U.S. News analyzed each hospital’s performance based on objective measures such as risk-adjusted mortality rates, preventable complications and level of nursing care. The Best Hospitals Specialty rankings methodology and Procedures & Conditions ratings methodology measure patient outcomes using data from over 800 million records of patient care.
