Are you a Super Doctor?

April 29, 2008

And should you want to be one?

Do these lists really measure quality? I don’t think they do. If there is no vetting of who gets the surveys in the first place, then the results are really just a mish-mash of referral patterns across and between specialties. I’ve always been surprised at seeing who is on and off Castle-Connolly’s list in New York Magazine, since it seems more hit and miss than anything else.
