One UNMC physician, James Gigantelli, M.D., in ophthalmology, who made the Best Doctor’s in America list, was inadvertently omitted from the initial story that ran in UNMC Today on Jan. 31.
He was one of a total of 279 UNMC physicians, including 150 full and part-time faculty, have been recognized on this year’s list of the Best Doctors in America.
The Best Doctors in America 2007-2008 database contains the names and professional profiles of approximately 35,000 physicians in the United States in more than 40 specialties, or the top 3 percent to 5 percent of specialists in the country.
UNMC Public Affairs apologizes for this omission.
