CHoR is well represented in Virginia Business’ second annual Virginia’s Top Doctors listing with 72 docs named among the state’s best!
Physicians throughout Virginia were asked to identify which of their peers they’d consider to be tops in the state. Last year’s overall listings included physicians from 60 specialties, which expanded to 87 specialties this year. With the addition of several pediatric categories, the number of CHoR docs featured nearly tripled.
“Our skillful, compassionate physicians are recognized as being Virginia’s experts in pediatric subspecialty care, not only by their peers who cast their ballots for this survey but by the thousands of families who turn to them every year,” said Elias Neujahr, CHoR president. “I’ve been working alongside these outstanding doctors at CHoR for 7 years and continue to be blown away by the knowledge and passion they bring to their patients every single day.”
More great news? Continually expanding offerings at our Children’s Tower and outpatient clinics throughout Central and Northern Virginia are making it easier for families from across the state to access this high-quality care for kids.
Congratulations to the following specialists, covering primary care, cardiology, cancer and more, who are recognized as top doctors in 2025. Note: Not all pediatric subspecialties are included in the list.
