Voting is officially open for this year’s U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals survey. These rankings hold strategic value for Macon & Joan Brock Virginia Health Sciences EVMS Medical Group at Old Dominion University and Sentara Norfolk General Hospital as many students, residents, faculty and patients consider them when deciding where to train, practice and receive care.
To have a strong voice in the outcome of these rankings, your support and participation through Doximity is essential to our success. Doximity plays an important role in the outcome of U.S. News & World Report’s “Best Hospitals” rankings. Last year, the site solicited over 140,000 physicians to vote for specialty programs and hospitals, asking who they would most recommend for care.
If you are registered on Doximity, and are board certified in one or more of the ranked medical specialties, you are eligible to vote. You only need to vote for one hospital to have your ballot count, though you can vote for more than one hospital. If you are not currently a Doximity user, you can register at any point during the voting period and cast your vote.
- Board-certified physicians can check their own voter eligibility via Doximity or open the app available from iTunes or Google Play.
- When logged in, there will be a U.S. News icon/graphic on the homepage to click on.
- You can nominate up to five hospitals in your specific adult field or up to 10 pediatric hospitals that you consider best for patients with serious or difficult conditions irrespective of expense or location.
- Voting is open until March 31.
The order in which you list the hospitals does not affect the ranking. If you have any problems with voting/logging on, please email usnews@doximity.com for assistance.
