For over 30 years, patients have turned to Castle Connolly as the official source of Top Doctors to find trusted, quality care. This honor is reserved for the top 7% of physicians who have demonstrated unparalleled expertise, dedication, and impact in the field of healthcare.
MDHN physicians have adenoma detection rates (ADR) that far exceed national averages. The ADR is the gold standard used to evaluate the quality of screening colonoscopies. Why does this matter? Because the higher the ADR, the lower the risk of developing colorectal cancer after a colonoscopy. Our physicians consistently and significantly outperform the national average.
