How the Lists of Doctors Were Put Together
To identify the "top doctors" listed in this guide, Bay Area Consumer Checkbook surveyed roughly 260,000 physicians. They surveyed all active doctors on the American Medical Association (AMA) mailing list except doctors in residency training, engaged only in research, or in a few other limited categories. The AMA list is a comprehensive list, which includes both AMA members and doctors who are not AMA members.
They asked each surveyed doctor to tell us which specialists, in 35 different fields, he or she "would consider most desirable for care of a loved one." Their list of doctors in each area contains the names of physicians who were mentioned multiple times by other physicians in their communities.
