Minnesota Monthly released its survey results for the magazine’s 2021 edition of “Top Doctors.” The list recognizes 243 doctors from University of Minnesota Physicians (M Physicians) across 63 different specialties – a 27% increase from last year.

Minnesota Monthly’s “Top Doctors” are selected based on nominations from their peers. The survey asked participants to name three doctors – other than themselves – who they would choose for their own care in each specialty category. Those whose names appeared most frequently are recognized as “Top Doctors.”

Additionally, the M Health Fairview system had over 400 providers featured in this year’s edition––the most out of any health system in the state. “We’re proud to have so many doctors recognized on this year’s list,” said Bevan Yueh, MD, MPH, CEO of M Physicians. “The fact that we have so many honorees from a wide breadth of specialties demonstrates that our system offers world-class care, no matter your healthcare need.”
