New Hampshire's 2013 Top Doctors

51 Top Specialists, plus more than 100 Leading Physicians chosen by their peers

In our 2013 survey we asked New Hampshire doctors who they would choose to provide for the medical needs of friends and loved ones. Their choices are here in your hands. To broaden the reach of our poll, we list our top doctors along with other leading physicians in each specialty. Plus, we solicited votes from our readers.

Several of the top vote-getters are profiled here to help explain the challenges and rewards of medicine, and we include replies from doctors to three questions we asked on the poll about the Affordable Care Act.

The List. Here's how it works. We send a survey to each doctor on the New Hampshire Board of Medicine's list of physicians licensed to practice in the state. This year we received responses from 473. The survey asks the physicians to nominate specialists they would most recommend to family and friends. Hundreds of physicians statewide were named. We include those who received the greatest number of recommendations within 45 specialties. Those picked in our survey are then fact-checked for biographical information. New Hampshire Magazine editors are not able to visit the Top Doctors nor screen their credentials. Many excellent physicians are not on this list and we wish

we could report on all the stories of tireless service to patients that we hear during the course of our poll. Many fine doctors have practices in areas of the state with small populations and fewer associates to receive surveys, thus creating a bias toward more populated regions of the state. Even so, smaller hospitals are often represented in the poll and we trust this list is broad enough to be useful and to represent the level of excellence that exists across the state. When seeking a new specialist for care, it's always a good idea to consult with your own doctor first.
