HOUSTON (Dec. 6, 2007) —Texas Monthly magazine recognized 33 Kelsey-Seybold Clinic physicians as 2007 Texas Super Docs from 17 different specialties. One third of the physicians chosen were pediatricians. The magazine selected honorees after receiving multiple nominations from medical peers statewide.

Being named a Texas Super Doctor is a particularly high honor, since more than 52,000 Texas physicians around the state were asked, “To whom would you refer a loved one or one of your patients for medical diagnosis and/or treatment?”

“This recognition truly shows how many top physicians are affiliated with Kelsey-Seybold Clinic," noted Spencer Berthelsen, MD, Chairman of the Board. "We think all Kelsey-Seybold doctors are super, and it would be impossible for Texas Monthly to recognize all of the great physicians who serve the healthcare needs of the second largest state in the country. Still, the results this year reflect very well on Kelsey-Seybold Clinic.”
