Let us recall that the weekly economic magazine compiles this ranking annually, and for a facility to be among the top 50 private clinics in France, out of 770 private establishments considered, it must provide a complete surgical service. The ranks obtained in the 20 specialties analyzed were summed up. The average was calculated based on the number of times the clinic was mentioned in the top 50, 20, 10, and 5 positions, and finally, the first places achieved.
Additionally, a criterion from the Ministry of Health was included, the Icalin score, which assesses organization, resources, and actions taken against hospital-acquired infections. For this index, the St George Clinic received an A grade with a score of 94/100 points.
Among the specialties considered in this analysis, we mention the treatment of colon and rectal cancer, for which St George Clinic is ranked No. 1 in this national ranking.
