10,000 Minnesota doctors were asked one simple question: If you, or someone you loved, needed medical attention, who would you recommend? More than 200 physicians representing the University of Minnesota Medical School made that list.

In September, Minnesota Monthly released its 2018 Top Doctors list, which includes 238 doctors from the University of Minnesota Medical School, University of Minnesota Physicians (UMP) and University of Minnesota Health. A total of 53 different medical specialty areas were represented.

The list first appeared in 2014. The rankings are determined through surveys of more than 10,000 licensed physicians in the 11-county metro area plus Olmsted County. Participants are asked to name three doctors other than themselves in each specialty category. The answers are compiled by Minnesota Monthly, and the doctors whose names appear most frequently are recognized in an edition of the magazine. This year there was a total of 935 physicians in 65 categories recognized.

In addition to University of Minnesota Health, UMP and Medical School, physicians affiliated with University partners Fairview and HealthEast were also recognized, equaling a total of 384 physicians across the entire system.

The complete list of University of Minnesota Health, University of Minnesota Medical School and University of Minnesota Physicians doctors recognized in 2018 by Minnesota Monthly are listed below:
