Recognized by other physicians for their expertise in a specialty.
Open to partnering with other physicians to best serve their patients.
Best Doctors has an unparalleled process that enables us to allow only the best minds in medicine to consult on our cases.We start by asking, “If you or a loved one needed a physician in your specialty, who would you refer them to?” In thisway, we get the doctors other doctors trust most. Physicians are voted on by thousands of other doctors across the country—andonly those who receive enough votes are considered.
As a result, we work with thousands of world-leading physicians representing nearly every specialty and subspecialty andwho are up-to-date on the latest medical advances, allowing our members more than just a fresh set of eyes. With sucha large pool of experts to draw on, each of our members can be matched to an expert who specializes in their specificcondition, and because our services are done entirely over the phone or the internet, we can help any member no matterwhere they’re located.
Not only do our members appreciate such an in-depth review of their cases, but our experts also welcome the chance to improvethese members’ lives.
