Congratulations to Family Medicine doctors Alvah Cass, Jennifer Raley, Angela Shepherd, Victor Sierpina and Barbara Thompson for being selected for inclusion in the Best Doctors in America database for 2009-2010 as a result of an extensive peer review.
Best Doctors was founded in 1989 by two Harvard Medical School physicians with the vision of making the best medical expertise available around the world.
Best Doctors is the largest, continuous, peer-to-peer survey of the medical profession ever conducted to develop a proprietary Best Doctors database of 50,000 expert physicians. They ask doctors questions like, "If you or a loved one needed a doctor in your specialty, to whom would you refer them?" That’s the idea behind Best Doctors database. Doctors have unique, “inside” perspective about who’s at the top of their profession, who’s up on the latest advances in their field, and therefore, where they personally would turn for state-of-the-art care when faced with a serious medical problem.
