Beauty & Wellness

The Best Doctors List in America for 2010  represents the top 5 percent of doctors in the United States, with more than 46,000 doctors in over 400 specialties and subspecialties. These are the doctors that other doctors recognize as the best in their fields, and they made the list because their peers voted for them.

We’re publishing the 186 area physicians in 18 specialties who made the list. Consider this a (very large) referral list. We also profile six local Best Docs, who tell us about their work, their play — and their passions (from Scooby-Doo to holding out hope for a Browns Super Bowl win).
