Consumers' CHECKBOOK Guide to Top Doctors - Specialty Categories
 

In preparing our Top Doctors list we surveyed roughly 340,000 physicians. We asked each surveyed doctor to tell us which specialists, in 35 different fields, he or she "would consider most desirable for care of a loved one."

Our list of doctors contains the names of physicians who were mentioned multiple times by other physicians in their communities. The names appear associated with the specialty category chosen by the surveyed physician.
