The selection for Super Doctors (http://www.superdoctors.com) involves a rigorous multi-step process designed to identify physicians who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. Each year, Key Professional Media invites doctors to nominate colleagues they know to be exceptional in their specified field. Physicians are asked to consider the following question: "If you needed medical care in one of the following specialties, which doctor would you choose?" The Super Doctors research staff also contributes to the pool of candidates by searching medical databases, online sources, and publications for doctors who have attained certain credentials, honors or professional achievements.
Nominees are grouped into specialties. Doctors, in each area, who have the highest scores from the nomination and evaluation steps are invited to serve on a "blue ribbon panel." Each panelist is asked to review and evaluate a list of nominees from his/her area of focus. The last step is to total the points received from nominations, research, and blue ribbon panel review. Only the highest-scoring doctors are included on the Super Doctors list. The Super Doctors list is approximately 5% of the physicians within the respective state or region.
Dr. Mai Brooks was chosen based on her outstanding medical accomplishments. Aside from her professional work, Dr. Brooks is involved in her church’s charitable activities.
