"Top Docs"
Congratulations to the members of Children’s medical staff listed among Seattle’s “Top Doctors,” according to a survey conducted by Seattle Magazine.
The physicians were selected through a confidential survey sent to a randomized list of physicians and complementary health care providers in King County and portions of Snohomish and Pierce counties.
The survey asked them to name the provider they would recommend in 56 different specialty areas and three areas of complementary medicine, regardless of their hospital, clinic or health-plan affiliation. The names recommended most frequently were included on the final list.
The article also highlights Dr. Linda Quan, medical staff president, as an international expert in the field of drowning prevention.
