"I am proud today to speak on behalf of the Trinity family," said Dianna Grant, MD, vice president of medical management for the hospital. "We are saluting our doctors- some of whom are products of this community, some celebrating 50 years of service and other serving as teachers, healers and mentors to all. These 11 doctors truly embrace and demonstrate the core values of Advocate Trinity Hospital...striving to be the best!"
The U.S. News Top Doctors list was created in collaboration with Castle Connolly Medical Ltd., publisher of America's Top Doctors and other consumer health guides, drawing from Castle Connolly's database of peer-recommended physicians.
U.S. News Top Doctors is a free searchable directory available at www.usnews.com/top-doctors that lists nearly 30,000 peer-nominated physicians across the country. The list builds on the 22nd annual Best Hospitals rankings released last week, which ranked Advocate Illinois Masonic as one of the Best Hospitals in the Chicago metro area. The Best Hospital list is available at www.usnews.com/best-hospitals.
Castle Connolly assembled the roster of Top Doctors by soliciting nominations from physicians in academic medical centers, specialty hospitals, regional hospitals and physician practices. Its research team then reviewed each nominee's training, achievements and appointments, among other credentials.
