Children’s Minnesota physicians recognized as 2023 Top Doctors by Minnesota Monthly

Children’s Minnesota is proud to congratulate 173 professional staff members who have been recognized as 2023 Top Doctors by Minnesota Monthly magazine. The 2023 list honors hundreds of physicians from the Twin Cities in dozens of specialties, all of whom were nominated by their peers.

The annual list was determined by a survey of thousands of licensed doctors in the Twin Cities, based on a list provided by the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice. Physicians are asked to name three doctors they would recommend if a family member needed medical care. Physicians who received the highest number of votes comprise the list.

The 2023 Top Doctors list can be found in the Sept./Oct. issue of Minnesota Monthly magazine.
