PacMed Clinicians Honored in Seattle Magazine’s 2025 Top Doctors List

PacMed is proud to share that 44 outstanding clinicians have been named to Seattle Magazine’s 2025 Top Doctors list! These physicians represent a wide range of specialties and exemplify the highest standards of care, compassion, and clinical excellence.

About the Top Doctors List

Each year, Seattle Magazine partners with Castle Connolly, a nationally respected healthcare research company, to identify the region’s most trusted physicians. The selection process is rigorous and peer-driven:

• Doctors nominate other doctors they would trust with the care of their own family and friends.
• Castle Connolly’s physician-led research team reviews each nominee’s credentials, board certifications, hospital affiliations, and professional achievements.
• No one can pay to be included—this recognition is earned through merit and peer respect.

This year’s list reflects the voices of thousands of doctors across the region and highlights those who go above and beyond in their fields.
