Minnesota Monthly Recognizes 21 Minnesota Oncology Physicians as “Top Doctors” in 2019

If you or a loved one needed medical care, which doctor would you recommend? This is the question asked to 10,000 licensed Minnesota doctors to compile the list of Minnesota Monthly’s 2019 Top Doctors list. This year, Minnesota Oncology and Plastic Surgery Consultants are proud to annonce that 21 of our physicians were named to this list.

The 2019 Top Doctors are all listed in the September/October issue of the magazine which is available on newsstands now.

Congratulations to all of our Top Doctors at Minnesota Oncology and Plastic Surgery Consultants who are an amazing example of the great care we strive to provide to patients every day!
