New York Magazine Best Doctors 2012: St. Francis Has More Top Doctors for Cardiac Care than Any Other Hospital on Long Island
ROSLYN, NY, June 5, 2012 – St. Francis Hospital, The Heart Center® once again has more top doctors for cardiac care on this year’s New York Magazine Best Doctors list than any other hospital on Long Island. Eight St. Francis physicians made the selective list, six of them in a cardiac specialty category.
The popular, yearly list is generated by Castle Connolly, the publisher of America’s Top Doctors, which is widely recognized as one of the most authoritative guides to the best physicians in the nation. New York Magazine’s complete list can be accessed at http://newyorkmetro.com/bestdoctors/index.htm.
Congratulations to all of the St. Francis physicians who made the 2012 list in both cardiac and noncardiac specialties:
Who picks the doctors?
A New York City research and information company, Castle Connolly Medical Ltd., publishes an annual guidebook, Top Doctors: New York Metro Area, which lists those whom Castle Connolly has determined to be in the top 10 percent of the region’s physicians – more than 5,600 in all. For the past fourteen years, Castle Connolly has been providing New York Magazine with a shorter version of this list for the magazine’s “Best Doctors” issue. Space prohibits New York from publishing the full list; this year the doctors on the list number 1,160.
