NY-Presbyterian has the most top doctors in metro area
For the twelfth straight year, NewYork-Presbyterian has more physicians listed in New York Magazine's prestigious "Best Doctors" annual survey than any other hospital. The magazine lists 198 NewYork-Presbyterian physicians — representing 17 percent of the 1,160 New York metro–area doctors listed.
This year's issue also features 11 profiles of 2012 medical college graduates representing Weill Cornell Medical College and Columbia University College of Physician and Surgeons, the medical schools affiliated with NewYork-Presbyterian — the only hospital in the nation affiliated with two leading Ivy League medical schools.
As part of the launch of a new weekly New York feature "Ask a Best Doctor," Dr. Marianne Legato, an internist, and Dr. Desiree Ratner, director of the melanoma center at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center, are among the top doctors who responded to health and wellness queries from the magazine's readers.
The "Best Doctors" issue is on newsstands today. For the full list of physicians and ranking methodology, visit nymag.com/bestdoctors.
