Houston VA Docs Among the Best in the World
August 16, 2012
A significant number of physicians affiliated with the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center are recognized as the best in their field by such organizations as Best Doctors, Inc. (only 5% of doctors in America earn this prestigious honor), U.S. News Top Doctors (top 10% in their region), and Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. (top 1% in the nation in his or her specialty).
The highly regarded Best Doctors in America® List, assembled by Best Doctors, Inc., results from exhaustive polling of over 45,000 physicians in the United States. Doctors in over 400 subspecialties of medicine appear on this list. In a confidential review, current physician listees answer the question, “If you or a loved one needed a doctor in your specialty, to whom would you refer?” Best Doctors, Inc. evaluates the review results, and verifies all additional information to meet detailed inclusion criteria.
U.S. News Top Doctors was developed in collaboration with Castle Connolly Medical Ltd., publisher of America's Top Doctors® and other guides, and was built upon data from Castle Connolly's Top Doctors™. Castle Connolly bases its Top Doctors selections on nominations submitted by other doctors and reviewed by its physician-led research team.
