A total of 154 Dartmouth-Hitchcock Health physicians were named among the best doctors in New Hampshire in New Hampshire Magazine’s annual survey. The recognized physicians are employed and provide services at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon and at Dartmouth-Hitchcock (D-H) clinics around the state; Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital in Lebanon; Cheshire Medical Center in Keene; and New London Hospital. They are named across 47 specialties ranging from behavioral pediatrics and gastroenterology to nephrology and vascular surgery.

“Our 154 honorees are a significant increase from the 115 named last year, which underscores that our patients increasingly recognize the clinical excellence and warm, personalized care provided across the D-HH system,” said Joanne M. Conroy, MD, CEO and President of D-H and D-HH. “No matter where a patient connects with D-HH – whether at the academic medical center in Lebanon, at one of our critical access hospitals across the region or through our home health and hospice organization – they experience the full strength and skill of our academic health system.”

New Hampshire Magazine partners with the national research firm Castle Connolly to distribute surveys to every licensed practicing Granite State physician. The physicians are asked to nominate specialists who they would recommend to friends and family for treatment. Those receiving the most nominations are named as the top doctors and represent leading physicians in their respective specialties.
