No one loves going to the doctor, but when you have a doctor you love, a trip to their office can feel a little less anxiety-inducing. These days, however, trying to find that diamond-in-the-rough medical professional can feel like playing the lottery. Between navigating insurance, looking for someone easily accessible (no one wants to add an hour of traffic to their appointment), and attempting to schedule an appointment sometime within the next six months, the process is downright overwhelming.

Most people turn to family, friends, or coworkers — and sometimes even social media — for referrals, but here at Seattle magazine, in partnership with Castle Connolly, we aim to make the process easier.

For more than two decades, we’ve published a list of the region’s top doctors — none of whom paid to be included, and all of whom were nominated by their peers — to help make your search for the right medical professional an easy click away.

So, whether it’s a twisted ankle or a tummy ache, we’ve got your back — and the talented, trusted doctors on our list have got the rest of your body too.
