Hopkins Children's Pediatric Specialists Ranked Tops By Baltimore Magazine
October 24, 2008
Congratulations to the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center specialists named among Baltimore’s top docs in the November 2008 issue of Baltimore Magazine.
Using names chosen by computer randomly from medical association mailing lists, Baltimore Magazine surveyed more than 2,000 physicians in the region to find out where they would send a member of their family in each of 69 specialties. The Maryland Board of Physician Quality Assurance looked for legal problems to eliminate candidates. The physicians chosen had to be accepting new patients, at the very least by referral.
