Whom do you trust to find the right doctor? There’s nothing reassuring about those online insurance directories, and referral services don’t necessarily have the patient’s best interest at heart. That’s why we asked doctors themselves. Where would they send their families if they needed help? These listings represent the top picks of hundreds of local doctors. They include the physicians’ contact information, primary and secondary hospitals, and areas of special expertise.
Atlanta magazine’s Top Doctors list was compiled by Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. This New York–based healthcare research and information company was founded in 1991 by a former medical college board chairman and president to help consumers identify top doctors and hospitals. Castle Connolly’s established survey and research process involves tens of thousands of top doctors and the medical leadership of prominent hospitals.
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 and electronic ballots, they ask a randomly selected sample of board-certified physicians and key medical leaders to identify highly skilled, exceptional doctors. Careful screening of doctors’ educational and professional experience is essential before final selection.
Castle Connolly seeks nominations not only of physicians who excel in academic medicine and research but also, most importantly, those who exhibit excellence in patient care—those to whom nominating physicians would send their own families. The survey does not include fields in which patients rarely have a choice, such as emergency medicine, nor does it include cosmetic surgery as a standalone specialty.
Doctors do not and cannot pay to be selected and profiled as Castle Connolly Top Doctors. Advertising in Atlanta magazine in no way influences the selection for this issue or for any future listings by Castle Connolly. Physicians selected for inclusion in this issue’s “Top Doctors” feature 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 ($34.95) or America’s Top Doctors for Cancer ($29.95).
