Burke Rehabilitation Named To Newsweek's 2025 List of America's Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers
The list celebrates top U.S. inpatient rehabilitation facilities
White Plains, NY (September 5, 2025): Burke Rehabilitation®, a member of the Montefiore Health System, today announced the organization has been named to Newsweek’s 2025 list of America’s Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers, ranking in the top ten of New York State’s rehabilitation centers – the only rehabilitation hospital in the Hudson Valley to make the list. This honor comes weeks after Burke was also named one of U.S. News & World Report’s 2025-26 Best Rehabilitation Hospitals.
“We are proud to again be recognized as one of Newsweek’s Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers in the nation,” said Scott Edelman, MBA, CPA, CFE, Burke Rehabilitation Executive Director. “At Burke, we are guided by our mission to provide the highest quality medical care and rehabilitation services to ensure that each patient achieves the maximum functional recovery from illness, injury, or disability.”
This year’s ranking honors the top 320 inpatient physical rehabilitation facilities in the U.S. In addition to ranking in the top ten for New York State, Burke’s Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) Program was recognized as a ‘Standout Program.’ Its Commission on Acute Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF)-accredited SCI Program focuses on improving patient’s quality of life following a spinal cord injury through a personalized care plan designed by each patient’s comprehensive and compassionate care team.
Beyond SCI, Burke boasts a wide range of expertise, including stroke care, orthopedics, cardiopulmonary, brain injury, amputation, and more, in settings conducive to the health and healing of patients on their recovery journey. The largest provider of stroke rehabilitation in New York, Burke takes a whole person approach to care, driving exceptional outcomes for even the most complex patients. This includes supporting patients with comorbidities – in 2024, Burke became the first and only freestanding rehabilitation hospital in the state to offer inpatient hemodialysis, filling a critical gap for patients with late-stage renal disease who require intensive rehabilitation.
Newsweek partnered with data intelligence platform Statista to rank America's Best Physical Rehabilitation Centers, based on the 25 states with the highest number of physical rehabilitation centers. For more information, visit Newsweek’s rankings.
