Which hospital in the states is recognised as the number one centre for BMT?

[TASHMAC]

I am possibly going to need a BMT for aplastic anemia and would like to know which hospital is recognised as the best for BMT hospital in association with aplastic anaemia.

I don't know of any ratings that tell you which is best, second best, etc., but I can mention a few that are widely known for having excellent transplant programs:

• Northwest: The Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle, Washington
• Southwest: The City of Hope National Medical Center near Los Angeles, California
• South: The University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas
• Midwest: The Cleveland Clinic Foundation Taussig Cancer Center in Cleveland, Ohio
• East: The Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center in Baltimore, Maryland
• East: The National Institutes of Health Clinical Center in Bethesda, Maryland (for people in clinical trials)
