Emory Physicians Recognized in Atlanta Magazine’s 2025 Top Doctors List
At Emory Healthcare, we believe every one of our doctors is a top doctor—because every day, they make a real difference in the lives of our patients and their families.
We set a high bar for the caliber of doctors who wear the Emory badge. And our physicians meet that challenge with skill, compassion and a deep commitment to patient care.
That’s why we’re proud to celebrate the many Emory doctors named to Atlanta Magazine’s 2025 Top Doctors list. It’s an honor to see their hard work and dedication recognized by their peers.
Honors like this are meaningful, but the real impact of our doctors is best told by the people who know it firsthand—our patients. Here, our patients share their own words on what makes their Emory doctor truly stand out.
Because to us, every Emory doctor is a top doctor. You can find these doctors and other expert providers practicing at our more than 580 provider locations throughout metro Atlanta and Georgia.
