The Top Doctors in Seattle for 2021

[addtoany]

Many people have no idea how to find a doctor. They often rely on recommendations from friends or colleagues, or whomever their health system recommends. Personal referrals matter, but we’ve taken that to the next level. For more than two decades, Seattle magazine has published a list of the region’s top doctors. None paid to be included on this prestigious list. All were nominated by their peers. Whether you’re looking for a primary care provider or a specialist, a positive and open relationship with a doctor keeps you healthier and lowers your medical costs.

Methodology 

Castle Connolly Top Doctors is a health care research company and the official source for Top Doctors for the past 25 years. Castle Connolly’s established nomination survey, research, screening and selection process, under the direction of an M.D., involves many hundreds of thousands of physicians as well as academic medical centers, specialty hos-pitals and regional and community hospitals all across the nation.

The online nominations process, located at www.castleconnolly.com/nominations, is open to all licensed physicians in America who are able to nominate physicians in any medical specialty and in any part of the country, as well as indicate whether the nominated physicians are, in their opinion, among the best in their region in their medical specialty or among the best in the nation in their medical specialty. Once nominated, Castle Connolly’s physician-led team of researchers follows a rigorous screening process to select top doctors on both the national and regional levels.

Careful screening of doctors’ educational and professional experience is essential before fi nal selection is made among those physicians most highly regarded by their peers. The result is that we identify the top doctors in America and provide you, the consumer, with detailed information about their education, training and special expertise in our paper-back guides, national and regional magazine “Top Doctors” features and online directories.

Doctors do not and cannot pay to be selected and profiled as Castle Connolly Top Doctors. Physicians selected for inclusion in this magazine’s “Top Doctors” feature also appear online at castleconnolly.com, or in conjunction with other Castle Connolly Top Doctors databases online on other sites and/or in print.
