48 school of medicine docs voted best

Forty-eight Temple University School of Medicine doctors have been voted "best" by their peers.

Every two years, “Best Doctors” surveys leading medical specialists from across the country, asking, “If you or a loved one needed a doctor in your specialty, to whom would you refer them?”

The result is the “Best Doctors” list and database, which includes the top 3 percent to 5 percent of specialists in the country. The “Best Doctors” database is offered to individuals through employee benefit plans and insurance programs.

"I extend my congratulations to each Temple physician named to this year's list. Their work, and the work of all our physicians, collectively contributes to the innovative advances in medical education, research, and patient care we are achieving here every day," said John M. Daly, MD, Dean of Temple University School of Medicine.
