Castle Connolly's 2025 Top Doctors list includes 170 Tulane physicians
Tulane University School of Medicine is proud to announce that 170 of our physicians have been recognized as Top Doctors for 2025 by Castle Connolly. This annual distinction honors physicians across a wide range of specialties who are nominated and voted on by their peers for excellence in patient care, clinical expertise, and leadership in medicine.
The Top Doctors results are featured in the August issue of New Orleans Magazine, which spotlights Erin Boh, MD, PhD, Joseph Chastain Endowed Chair of Clinical Dermatology at Tulane School of Medicine, on the cover. Dr. Boh shares her journey to becoming a physician and what continues to inspire her work today.
In addition, Castle Connolly named three Tulane physicians as Rising Stars, an honor given to early-career doctors recognized by their peers for outstanding accomplishments and dedication to medicine.
