Dr. Jamie Grifo was recently honored by New York Magazine for being selected as a Top Doctor for Reproductive Endocrinology for the 10th year in a row.

According to the magazine, recipients of the survey include "randomly selected board-certified doctors; all doctors listed in the previous edition of Castle Connolly's annual guidebook; and, from every hospital in the area, the president or CEO, the vice-president of medical affairs, and up to eight chiefs of service in departments from surgery to pediatrics."

"The forms ask recipients to nominate those doctors who, in their judgment, are the best in their field and related fields-especially those to whom they would refer their own patients and family members (doctors are asked not to nominate themselves; nominations are kept confidential)."

The survey takes into account "not only professional qualifications and reputation (education, residency, board certification, hospital appointment, and disciplinary record, for example) but also skills in dealing with patients (listening and communicating effectively, demonstrating empathy, instilling trust and confidence)."
