Top Ranked Hospitals Near Akron Ohio Homes

By
Real Estate Agent with Howard Hanna Real Estate Services

When asked what our area offers our buying clients, it's nice to have the facts on schools, crime, churches, shopping, highways and local amenities. Well, here is a great list for me and my fellow N.E. Ohio Realtor's® to shout about and re-print. Right here in good ol' Akron our two major hospitals, General and Summa, are listed as in the top 50 in the whole country. For a city of @ 200,000 people, that is remarkable. Not only that, but four more show up in the Cleveland area. Naturally, the Cleveland Clinic would show up as I am sure most of you are familiar with that hospital. It is visited by patients from all over the world when their health and lives are in danger. For those that do not know, Cleveland is only 40 minutes from the Akron area.

Judging by this list N.E. Ohio is in good hands when it comes to health issues.

    I have semi fond memories of about three weeks visiting my husband at Akron General... I did not even know where the hospital was although I'd lived in Akron for about a year when he got sick and I took him to an urgent care and they said get him to an emergency room, it would be faster if you can drive him than calling an ambulance.   I think I knew the Children's hospital (probably closest to O'Neil's downtown) and they told me to take him to Akron General.

    Where are our Cbus hospitals....

    Hi Mo, I was shocked not to see Riverside on there, great heart hospital...my daughter worked in the open heart room for 10 years after OSU. They saved a lot of folks there.
