Looking for New York's Best Doctors? Find them in New Haven!
69 Yale Medical Group Physicians Recognized for Excellence
[July 2006] A New York City research and information company called Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. publishes an annual guidebook, Top Doctors: New York Metro Area, which lists those doctors whom Castle Connolly has determined to be the top 10 percent of the region's physicians, more than 6,000 in all. The firm conducts a peer-review survey to create the list. The theory is that medical professionals are best qualified to judge medical professionals, and if one recommendation is good (think of your doctor's referring you to a specialist), multiple recommendations are better. For the past nine years, Castle Connolly has been providing /New York /Magazine with a shorter version of this list for the magazine's “Best Doctors” issue. These doctors represent the top 20 percent of the top 10 percent (that is, the top 2 percent) of New York–area physicians, as determined by Castle Connolly
