Best Doctors: The 2010 List

The Top 1,144 Physicians

But amid the ongoing political debate, there is one point of common ground: When you’re sick, you want the best possible care. Our fourteenth annual Best Doctors issue is meant to provide exactly that. With 1,144 names in 63 specialties, there is a first-rate physician on the list for every medical need.
