Top Docs at Cooper

New Jersey Monthly

From New Jersey Monthly: "All medical discussions center on numbers. “You’ve got a 50 percent chance of regaining the use of your pinky” and “How many plaid elephants do you see right now?” are just two emergency-room favorites. But when we started assembling this year’s massive list of 573 “Top Doctors,” we were struck by the figures on many levels. The overall total of honorees and the biggest voter turnout (more than 2,100 physicians cast ballots) were gratifying, but context is everything. We confess we call the package “Top Doctors” because the phrase is catchy. This earns the ire of the supremely skilled physicians who didn’t earn a spot this time around.

"After triple-checking the data, we realize that the 573 doctors represent just 1.7 percent of the 33,957 doctors with valid New Jersey licenses, or 2.2 percent of all those practicing in the state. The depth of medical expertise here is exceptional—in the front ranks of the nation. Our honorees have the additional distinction of being singled out by their peers."

Congratulations to the Cooper physicians who were named "Top Docs" by New Jersey Monthly for 2008.
