Who Can Vote

You are eligible to vote for the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report’s Best Children’s Hospitals Rankings if you are registered on Doximity and board-certified in one or more of the pediatric specialties ranked by U.S. News. The ranked pediatric specialties are Cancer, Cardiology & Heart Surgery, Diabetes & Endocrinology, Gastroenterology & GI Surgery, Neonatology, Nephrology, Neurology & Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, Pulmonology, Urology and Behavioral Health. If you are not currently a Doximity user, you can register at any time to vote during the voting period. 

How to Vote

All voting takes place on Doximity. There are no longer paper ballots. Here are a few tips to help you prepare to vote: 

• If you are a registered Doximity user and wish to participate in the online survey, keep an eye out for an email from Doximity about the annual member survey. Even if you do not see the email, you can still vote by logging into Doximity.com (as long as you are a registered user). Note: If you haven't claimed your Doximity profile or updated your profile data, you may still do so and will immediately be able to vote if eligible.
• Once you are logged into Doximity, look for a U.S. News graphic or button on the home page and click on it.
• The survey will ask you to name the hospitals that provide the best care in your respective specialty, without consideration of location or cost. For pediatric specialists, the survey will allow you to list up to 10 hospitals in your field. However, you only need to vote for one hospital to have your ballot count.
• If you have any difficulties completing the survey, contact usnews@doximity.com for assistance.
