CMM is proud to announce the Castle Connolly’s 2016 Top Doctors® list for Columbia area physicians. This list is provided to Columbia Metropolitan Magazine exclusively from Castle Connolly Medical LTD, which we hope will be a great resource for our readers in search of a medical doctor. The Top Doctors list is a peer reviewed and researched list. Advertising in Columbia Metropolitan is in no way connected to the selection of doctors in this issue or any and all future “Top Doctors” listings that Castle Connolly may publish or license to the publication. Across the country, these recommendation lists have proven to be invaluable in selecting a physician for healthcare needs.

Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. is a healthcare research and information company founded in 1991 by a former medical college-board chairman and president to help guide consumers to America’s top doctors and top hospitals. Castle Connolly’s established survey and research process, under the direction of an MD, involves many tens of thousands of physicians as well as academic medical centers, specialty hospitals and regional and community hospitals all across the nation.
Castle Connolly’s physician-led team of researchers follows a rigorous screening process to select top doctors on both the national and regional levels. Its online nominations process — located at www.castleconnolly.com/nominations — is open to all licensed physicians in America who are able to nominate physicians in any medical specialty and in any part of the country, as well as indicate whether the nominated physicians is, in their opinion, among the best in their region in their medical specialty or among the best in the nation in their medical specialty. Careful screening of doctors’ educational and professional experience is essential before final selection is made among those physicians most highly regarded by their peers. The result — we identify the top doctors in America and provide you, the consumer, with detailed information about their education, training and special expertise in our paperback guides, national and regional magazine “Top Doctors” features and online directories.
Doctors do not and cannot pay to be selected and profiled as Castle Connolly Top Doctors®.
Physicians selected for inclusion in this magazine’s “Top Doctors” feature may also appear as Regional Top Doctors online at www.castleconnolly.com, or in one of Castle Connolly’s Top Doctors guides, such as America’s Top Doctors® or America’s Top Doctors® for Cancer.
