Newsweek has recognized 14 Kaiser Permanente hospitals in Southern California, including Downey Medical Center, as part of its America’s Best Maternity Hospitals 2025 list for exemplary patient care.
High-quality maternity care, provided from pregnancy through birth and postpartum, is key to the long-term health of newborns and women who give birth. Given that maternity care is a major component of health care, Newsweek and Statista partnered to identify America’s Best Maternity Hospitals in 2025.
Kaiser Permanente hospitals recognized for excellence in maternity care were Anaheim, Downey, Baldwin Park, Fontana, Irvine, Los Angeles, Moreno Valley, Ontario, Panorama City, Riverside, San Diego, South Bay, West Los Angeles and Woodland Hills medical centers.
“This recognition is the result of our commitment to outstanding maternity outcomes and a testament to the high-quality maternity care across our hospitals,” said Michelle Gaskill-Hames, president, Kaiser Permanente Southern California and Hawaii, Health Plan and Hospitals. “It’s also due in no small part to the dedication of our staff and physicians, who day in and day out go the extra mile in meeting our maternity patients’ health care needs.”
Dr. Ramin Davidoff, executive medical director and chair of the Southern California Permanente Medical Group, and chair and CEO of the Hawaii Permanente Medical Group, noted, “I’m proud of the exceptional care delivered by our dedicated teams of physicians, nurses and health care professionals. They provide highly skilled and compassionate care to our maternity patients before, during and after childbirth.”
