US News and World Report #4 Anesthesiology Program ranking badge

US News and World Report has released its graduate and professional school rankings for 2023, again placing the UCSF Anesthesia and Perioperative Care Residency Program in the top 5 nationally. Our program offers rigorous clinical training and breadth of experience in a nurturing and supportive environment. Our faculty are dedicated to training and mentoring the next generation of anesthesiology leaders.

We are surrounded by the best in all of the specialties with whom we have the pleasure of working - joining 7 other UCSF specialties to have ranked in the top ten in the 2023 US News and World Report rankings. In fact, UCSF was the only medical school to have ranked in the top ten in all 8 medical specialties surveyed (obstetrics and gynecology are tied for No. 1; internal medicine is No. 3, anesthesiology, psychiatry, and radiology are No. 4, pediatrics and surgery are No. 5, and family medicine is No. 6.), and the only medical school to have ranked in the top 5 in both primary care and research.

For the second year, U.S. News included a diversity ranking, and four University of California medical schools were highly ranked. UC Davis was third, UCSF tied with UC Riverside for eleventh, and UCLA was number 14 on the list. All four schools ranked in the top ten among public institutions.

“Our strengths in research, primary care, diversity, and the full range of medical specialties once again shows the impact we’ve had in transforming education for the physicians and scientists of the future, and our continued focus on improving diversity, equity, and inclusion,” said Talmadge E. King, Jr., MD, the dean of the UCSF School of Medicine. “We share these honors with our faculty, staff, and learners, and take pride in being a public institution with a strong mission to serve the people of California.”
