Connecticut Magazine's Top Docs in Specialties of Interest to Older Adults--April 2004

[April 2004] The readers of Connecticut Magazine have always been interested in quality health care. For this survey, 1,900 surveys were sent to doctors in the specialties below, covering nearly every city and town in the state. The survey asked doctors to recommend a Connecticut specialist within their own field to whom they'd send a loved one. About 15% of those surveyed responded. CT Magazine then added these results to the database of responses to previous surveys in order to create this list. Here are the members of YMG who were named:
