The University of Tennessee Health Science Center is well-represented in the Castle Connolly 2026 Exceptional Women in Medicine listing, with dozens of physicians recognized through the peer-nomination process. The achievement is a testament to the exceptional quality of physicians caring for Memphis and the region.
UT Health Sciences faculty honored in this year's awards list published in the Memphis Flyer represent expertise spanning numerous medical specialties and subspecialties. Castle Connolly, a health care research company, identifies top doctors through a peer-nomination process in which physicians across specialties nominate colleagues they would trust with their own family's care.

"They're advancing patient care, conducting groundbreaking research, and training future physicians who will serve communities across Tennessee."
