Share This Post

Over 8,400 doctors in 77 specialties honored as outstanding women in the medical field

Castle Connolly today announced the release of the 2023 Exceptional Women in Medicine. This list recognizes female Castle Connolly Top Doctors across the United States who have demonstrated outstanding leadership, expertise and dedication in their respective fields. There are over 8,400 doctors represented, across 77 specialties and all 50 states. 

The Exceptional Women in Medicine list is compiled through a rigorous selection process that includes peer nominations, extensive research, and evaluation by the Castle Connolly research team. In addition to meeting the criteria to be selected as a Castle Connolly Top Doctor, these doctors also have additional qualifications, including contributions to healthcare through volunteer work, awards and honors, training at top institutions, contributions to research and academics, and innovations in their field of specialty.

According to data from the Kaiser Family Foundation, women account for 37% of physicians in the U.S., and have been historically underrepresented in medicine and less likely to hold leadership positions. 43% of first-time Castle Connolly Top Doctors in the past year were women, increasing the representation of women by 13% compared to the year prior, to over 19,000 women honored as 2023 Castle Connolly Top Doctors. 

"We are proud to see an increasing number of women recognized as Castle Connolly Top Doctors each year," said Steve Leibforth, Managing Director, Castle Connolly. "It is our hope that by recognizing and highlighting the achievements of these Exceptional Women in Medicine, we can inspire more women to pursue careers in medicine and help to address the under-representation of women in certain medical specialties and leadership positions." 

"Many women seek out female physicians, because we have different life experiences, and they may feel more comfortable talking about something that they know their doctor may have experienced themselves," said Dr. Amy Lichtenfeld, Allergist-Immunologist & Internist at Eastside Medical Associates, and 5-time recipient of the Exceptional Women in Medicine recognition. "The medical field has become more diverse in the last few decades, and that helps all patients feel more comfortable speaking to someone who may come from a similar background to them or who looks like them."

The Exceptional Women in Medicine recognition is part of Castle Connolly's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Initiative, designed to honor top clinicians and enable patients to find Castle Connolly Top Doctors who have shared backgrounds and experiences. The first-ever list of Castle Connolly Top Black Doctors was released in February, and Castle Connolly will launch other new recognitions in 2023, including:

  • Top Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) Doctors (May)
  • Top LGBTQ+ Doctors (June)
  • Top Hispanic/Latin Doctors (September)

Scholars is an award-winning franchise tutoring system, providing broad academic support to students K-12 in all subjects.

This Thursday, March 28th, Scholars will celebrate the grand opening of its new location in Mandeville, Louisiana. The event begins at 11:30 a.m. and will take place at 1901 U.S. Hwy 190, STE 27, Mandeville, La.

Scholars is proud to be cutting the ribbon of its second location in New Orleans. This week’s event will also feature some NFL star power as Cam Jordan of the New Orleans Saints will be making an appearance. Renowned throughout the NFL for his ferocious and creative pass-rushing, Cam, the Saints all-time sack leader and 8x pro-bowler, is both a student of the game of football and a big believer in the importance of education off the field. Cam will meet and inspire the students and families of the community alongside Scholars CEO Matt Baxter and other special guests. 

The event is free to attend and will feature giveaways, food from local vendors, face painting, pictures, games, and other surprises.

Scholars of Mandeville owner Ryan Fitzsimmons is excited to give back to his community and to provide students in the area with world-class tutoring. “I’m always willing and able to help kids,” Fitzsimmons said. “I’m a huge believer in Scholars because I’ve seen it work. It’s really amazing and I’m excited to be a part of it.” 

Scholars' first Louisiana location was opened in 2021 by another NFL star, 5x Pro Bowl Offensive Tackle Terron Armstead. Scholars of New Orleans has brought the joy of success in school to hundreds of students over the past three years and provides the template which Ryan Fitzsimmons seeks to follow.

Scholars, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2024, has over 80 locations across North America. It uses its world-class curriculum and programming coupled with qualified, caring teachers to provide exceptional tutoring services for students of all ages.
