Newsweek developed the list in partnership with Castle Connolly Medical LTD, which publishes America’s Top Doctors®. According to Newsweek’s website, a Castle Connolly team led by physicians reviewed nearly 100,000 nominations, then talked with hospital leaders and cancer specialists to develop the list of top cancer doctors.
