Wake Forest University Physicians Listed Among Best in America

April 12, 1999

Of more than 600 physicians in North Carolina recently listed among "The Best Doctors in America," 95 are Wake Forest University physicians.

That''s nearly 16 percent of the physicians in the current listing, "The Best Doctors in America, 1998-1999," the result of the fourth survey conducted by Woodward/White, Inc., of Aiken, S.C. To compile the current database, more than 30,000 physicians throughout the United States were asked to rate the clinical abilities of other physicians in their areas of specialization. Only those physicians who earned the consensus support of their peers were included.

Listings cannot be bought. For this reason, inclusion in Best Doctors is considered a singular honor.
