I don't mean to toot my own horn, but apparently, I am a "Top Doc"

There is a local magazine that annually does an issue where they survey doctors in the area about who they would go to if they needed to see a specialist. A new patient a few weeks ago told me they chose me because they saw my name in this magazine. I did not think they even listed non-MD/DO physicians. Our issue came yesterday, and it turns out I am on their list. They even spelled my name correctly.

Interestingly, I am the only one that is self employed and not an employee of a large multi disciplinary medical group.

Quote fun from TG:

"The list of toes is long but distinguished.”

Well done!

Better, if you ask me, than being a "Bottom" Doc.

Oh, and congratulations!

Congratulations!

I'm sure you've heard this too many times, but it might be new for some here.

Well done Tobra !! In this day and age it is a major accomplishment for someone outside of the established norm to receive such an honor. You are definitely doing it right !!
