Summary

McGaw Medical Center of Northwestern University is a teaching hospital and medical institution affiliated with Northwestern University School of Medicine, located in Illinois. The organization has filed 125 H-1B petitions between 2010 and 2025, with a strong all-time certification rate of 92% and minimal denial and withdrawal activity.

In FY2025, the center filed 7 H-1B petitions, all of which were certified—reflecting renewed activity after a period of lower filings. Historically, volumes peaked in the early 2010s (12–15 filings annually) before declining sharply around 2015–2019, with only one filing each in 2020 and 2021. The recent uptick beginning in 2024 suggests increased H-1B sponsorship for specialized medical roles.

The center's H-1B hires concentrate heavily in physician and surgeon specialties: Physicians, All Other (29 filings), Anesthesiologists (17), Surgeons, All Other (17), Radiologists (7), and Ophthalmologists (4). This specialty-focused mix aligns with McGaw's role as a major academic medical center recruiting international medical talent for clinical and research positions.
