Tips on Choosing a Doctor

Try to gather information from many sources and in many forms - the more sources of information, the better - including: friends/family, your health benefits officer at work, fellow employees, and health plan network lists. Be sure to investigate the doctor's qualifications by reviewing the following:

Education and Training: College (four years); Medical School (four years); Residency Training (up to seven years); Fellowship Training (up to seven years); and Continuing Education (Lifetime)

Quality Measurements: Board Certification; Years in Practice; Disciplinary actions by state medical boards and Medicare

Customer Satisfaction: personal attributes such as doctor gender and age; referrals from colleagues/friends

Doctor Affiliations: Health Plans; Affiliated Hospitals' Quality
