Question: What's WRONG with those phrases?
Answer: Everything..
If you haven't had experience with Cincinnati Children's Hospital, you should probably not voice an opinion. They have consistently been in the top 5 for years. Their expansion and commitment to the community, are what drove this new ranking.
Cchmc has gone big time WOKE! Yes, itโs a good hospital. Lucky to have it. But, DEI over child care is should NEVER play into the rating. I wish someone would follow the money with that place. 2 big new research buildings and a new tower. I did look into it and the breakdown from 2019 In research financing: NIH, CDC, DOJ, Bill and Melinda Gates foundation just to name a fewโฆ
I did hear they bought that #1 position.
