The Castle Connolly selection process for the Top Doctors listing begins with peer recognition through surveys that are given out to thousands of physicians nationwide and other healthcare leaders. They are asked to identify who they believe are highly skilled, exceptional doctors. This peer-recommended list is then reviewed by Castle Connolly for standards, including medical education, training, hospital appointments, professional achievements and any disciplinary or malpractice history.

“Our commitment to clinical excellence at Boca Regional is evident throughout the whole medical staff, but these 63 physicians deserve the added praise that comes with such a notable accolade,” said Jerry J. Fedele, President and CEO of Boca Raton Regional Hospital. “It is strong testimony to the quantity and quality of clinical expertise we have at the hospital.”
