SEATTLE — June 21, 2022 — Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, which is now Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, the only National Cancer Institute - designated cancer center in Washington state is proud to announce more than 50 physicians are included in the Seattle Magazine 2022 Top Doctors list.
This is the 22nd year for the Top Doctors list, which highlights high-performing healthcare providers in the region. The Top Doctors list is peer voted and includes doctors, physician assistants and nurse practitioners in more than 60 specialties.
“Our providers’ commitment to delivering the best possible care and advancing cancer care, are two factors that contribute to our organization being so well-represented on this important list,” said Nancy Davidson, MD, Executive Vice President, Clinical Affairs Senior Vice President, Clinical Research Division. “It is truly an honor to be recognized by our peers in the healthcare community in our region.”
The list was created in partnership with Professional Research Services and polled health care practitioners licensed by the Washington State Department of Health in King, Snohomish, Kitsap, and Pierce counties, asking, “If you or a loved one needed professional care, who would you call?” Voters nominated peers based on years of experience, rapport with patients, patient satisfaction and other elements.
