When your care and coverage work together, your doctors are free to focus on the best care and the best outcome. Care is driven by what’s best for you, not someone else’s bottom line.

And as members of the area’s largest multispecialty group practice, our physicians have unique access to the insights of more than 17,000 Permanente physicians and researchers nationwide—along with top-rated hospitals and centers of excellence across the country.

Each of our doctors is also connected to the world’s largest system of private electronic health records. That helps put them, and your care, at the forefront of medicine and research.

It’s all just part of why hundreds make the area “top doc” and “super doc” lists every year.* Don’t you deserve a doctor who’s free to be the best?

BALTIMORE MAGAZINE METHODOLOGY

To arrive at our results, our annual online poll surveyed thousands of

physicians in the region to find out where they would send a member of their own

family in dozens of specialties (participating physicians had to identify themselves). Assisting us with the survey were three physician advisers who were not eligible to be included on the list themselves.
