June 2018:
The NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital system was honored again by New York Magazine’s annual “Best Doctors” issue, published in June of 2018. Over 300 physicians across the system’s core medical centers and regional hospital network were recognized on the list today, including 15 of which from the Center for Advanced Digestive Care at NewYork-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center.
The annual "Best Doctors" list is built in conjunction with Castle Connolly Medical, Ltd. Their Castle Connolly database, Top Doctors: New York Metro Area, is developed using credential checks, a peer-reviewed survey, and adjustments for geographic distribution and niche specialties.
