UConn Health had 34 physicians named to Connecticut Magazine’s 2017 ‘Top Docs’ list.

This year’s survey once again polled 5,000 physicians statewide asking which doctors, besides themselves, would they each recommend to a loved one if they needed medical care.

The poll focused on eight key specialties: anesthesiology, obstetrics & gynecology, oncology & hematology, otolaryngology, physical medicine, radiology, rheumatology and colorectal surgery. The top vote-getters in these categories made the ‘Top Docs’ listing, along with all other specialists who finished at the top of the surveys during 2014-2016.
