HOW WE DID IT
The professionals listed herein—active physicians in Hamilton, Butler, Warren, and Clermont counties in Ohio; Boone, Kenton, and Campbell counties in Kentucky; and Dearborn County in Indiana—were selected by their peers in a survey asking them which physicians they’d turn to for care conducted by Professional Research Services Company of Troy, Michigan. Professionals may be screened and selected through the verification of licensing and review of any infractions through various applicable boards, agencies, and rating services. For further information visit www.prscom.com or e-mail PRS at sshevin@hour-media.com. This list does not, of course, include every caring, knowledgeable, and responsible physician in Greater Cincinnati. Some physicians appear in more than one specialty. Not all listed physicians are accepting new patients.
