Females comprise nearly a third of all U.S. physicians, and the numbers continue to grow.
Castle Connolly’s physician-led team of researchers follows a rigorous screening process to select top doctors on both the national and regional levels. Using mail and telephone surveys, as well as electronic ballots, they ask physicians and the medical leadership of leading hospitals to identify highly skilled, exceptional doctors. Careful screening of doctors’ educational and professional experience is essential before final selection is made among those physicians most highly regarded by their peers.
The result: Castle Connolly identifies the top doctors in America and provides consumers with detailed information about the doctors’ education, training, and special expertise in its paperback guides, national and regional magazine “Top Doctors” features, and online directories.
Doctors do not and cannot pay to be selected and profiled as Castle Connolly Top Doctors.
Physicians selected for inclusion in this list may also appear as Regional Top Doctors online at castleconnolly.com or in one of Castle Connolly’s Top Doctors guides, such as America’s Top Doctors® or America’s Top Doctors® for Cancer. Castle Connolly’s print guides are available online at castleconnolly.com, by telephone at 800-399-DOCS (3627), and at all major bookstores.
