Top Doc 2008In the news: Our docs are tops

Four Virginia Women's Center physicians have been named  "top docs" in Richmond magazine's annual issue that recognizes medical excellence in the Richmond area! The magazine mailed surveys to area physicians earlier this year so they could nominate their peers. They gave top marks to: Drs. Alice Hirata (cover) and Vienne Murray for ob/gyn care; Dr. Lisa Troyer for maternal-fetal medicine; and Dr. Lonny Green for female urology.

 

At Virginia Women's Center, we're confident that all 25 of our "docs" are "tops." Providing individualized care for women of all ages and stages at four locations in the greater Richmond area, Virginia Women's Center physicians and nurse practitioners are dedicated to medical excellence and rooted in the strong cohesiveness of this 40+-year-old medical practice.
