Austin Regional Clinic Doctors receive special recognition
Texas Monthly’s annual SUPER DOCTORS listing
includes 7 Austin Regional Clinic physicians
November 18, 2009. Seven Austin Regional Clinic physicians representing four specialties are featured in the December, 2009 issue of Texas Monthly in its sixth annual list of Texas Super Doctors. The publishers of Texas Monthly and Key Professional Media, Inc., released this list of Texas Super Doctors stating that they are “who medical professionals trust and hold to the highest regard.” The doctors were selected by their peers and verified by the Key Professional Media research staff.
Key Professional Media asked more than 40,000 medical professionals in Texas to nominate one or more doctors, other than themselves, from specified medical specialties based on one question: “If you needed medical care, which doctor would you choose?” The research team also identified Texas doctors who had achieved special recognition from their peers or had demonstrated other indications of expertise in their specialties. The researchers made sure each physician is properly licensed and has no history of disciplinary action. The 2009 list includes doctors in 33 medical practice areas.
“We believe all our doctors are super doctors and that our system of coordinated care and preventive care saves healthcare dollars in the long run. We are proud that these seven ARC physicians are receiving much-deserved recognition from other medical professionals,” said Dr. Norman Chenven, Founder and CEO of Austin Regional Clinic.
