CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 7, 2009 - Forty-seven physicians from the University of Virginia Health System were included in the latest edition of America's Top DoctorsTM (eighth edition). Published annually by Castle Connolly Medical Ltd., the guide recognizes physicians who are considered among the top one percent in the nation in their medical specialties and sub-specialties.
To be selected for inclusion in the book, doctors must be nominated by their peer physicians. The nomination process involves tens of thousands of board-certified physicians across the nation, as well as presidents, vice presidents of medical affairs [or an equivalent position] and chiefs of service in eight medical specialties from more than 1,000 hospitals across the United States. These doctors receive letters inviting them to go online to a special website to enter nominations of physicians whom they feel are clinically outstanding, on the national and regional level. The Castle Connolly research staff also conducts extensive interviews by telephone with leading physicians, specialists, chiefs of service and healthcare executives to strengthen the information-gathering processes.
The guide is designed to help people find the most outstanding specialists to meet their medical needs, be they available on a local, regional or national level
