Prestigious Peer-Led Designation Honors Top Doctors in Their Field of Medicine
NORWALK, Conn., Feb. 20, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Illume Fertility, a leading modern fertility practice whose exceptional quality of care helps hopeful parents grow their families, has announced that seven of their board-certified reproductive endocrinologists have been honored with the prestigious Castle Connolly Top Doctor award. For more than 30 years, the renowned publishing company Castle Connolly has compiled its list of America's Top Doctors®. Every doctor included on the list is nominated by peer doctors in their specific field and assessed by a physician-led research team.
The 2024 Top Doctor designation was awarded to:
- Mark Leondires, MD
- Spencer Richlin, MD
- Cynthia Murdock, MD
- Shaun Williams, MD
- Barry Witt, MD
- Joshua Hurwitz, MD
- Ilana Ressler, MD
Top Doctors are rigorously selected from all practicing physicians in the United States from all major specialties and represent the top 7 percent of all U.S. practicing physicians. Castle Connolly's research methodology is designed to identify doctors who will achieve the best possible health outcomes for their patients. For a reproductive endocrinologist, that translates to successful fertility treatment cycles (IUI and IVF) resulting in pregnancies and babies. All seven Illume Fertility physicians are at the top of their field and have the most up-to-date knowledge and skills in the field of Reproductive Endocrinology, the medical specialty dedicated to fertility treatment.
"As we enter our 22nd year as a practice, we recognize what an impact our physicians and patient-focused teams have made in the lives of families, both locally and internationally," said Dr. Mark Leondires, Founder, Medical Director and Partner at Illume Fertility and Gay Parents To Be. "We will continue to prioritize personalized, holistic fertility care as we move forward," Dr. Leondires adds. "Mutual trust and collaboration are the bedrock of our organization, and these efforts are reflected in our 79% success rate* and the more than 50,000 cycles we have completed with patients working to start or build their families. Everyone is welcome at Illume!"
