Baltimore magazine recognized close to 200 Johns Hopkins physicians as “Top Doctors” of 2020. This acknowledgement comes from an annual peer survey in which the metro area’s roughly 14,000 physicians vote on which doctor they would send a member of their family or friend to. The survey includes 135 specialties, and only approximately 6 percent of all physicians in the area receive the peer support required to make this list.
In the same November 2020 issue of Baltimore magazine, Dr. Joseph Cofrancesco (pictured), professor in the Division of General Internal Medicine, was profiled for a feature story to recognize his efforts during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in the face of personal tragedy.
Dr. Sherita Golden, professor in the Division of Endocrinology, was named a Hero in Health Care.
