The annual Charlotte Magazine Top Doctor list is out! We are proud to announce that many of our physicians are recognized for their talents and achievements, and we extend a heartfelt congratulations to all! Top Doctors is an initiative in the Charlotte area where the editors of the magazine ask doctors to vote for other doctors who exemplify excellence in various specialties. The list is intended to allow the community to see and celebrate their doctors who make the list. It also gives those seeking medical services a place to find doctors who are most-nominated by their participating peers. You can see all who made the 2020 list here:
