University practitioners cited among

Over 100 University physicians were named among the "best doctors" in America by Best Doctor, Inc., according to a University Health System press release.

The results were compiled through a biennial peer review survey of the medical profession.

The 35,000 doctors, who were ranked among the best in their specialties in previous surveys, were asked the question, "If you or a loved one needed a doctor in your specialty, to whom would you refer them?"

The methodology of the poll mimicked the informal process by which doctors often refer patients to various specialists.

The database, representing the top 5 percent of physicians in more than 400 medical specialties, aims to help people find appropriate specialists for their medical needs.
