VCU Health docs are Top Docs in Richmond!
April 05, 2021
Richmond Magazine has published its annual list of top doctors in the Richmond area. Two hundred nine VCU Health providers have been named to this year’s list — with 18 listed as Top Docs in multiple specialties.
This recognition is a testament to the compassionate, quality care our providers give to our patients, even as they battle a deadly pandemic.
The 209 providers listed below were chosen by their peers and provide care across a wide range of specialties, including at Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU, Massey Cancer Center, Hume-Lee Transplant Center and Pauley Heart Center.
The VCU Health language services team was also featured for its lifesaving work, particularly as members navigated barriers imposed by COVID-19.
Congratulations to this year’s Top Docs!
