Friedlander Named "Top Doc"
HOOKSETT,
NH For the fourth year that the honor has been given, a physician
at New Hampshire Oncology-Hematology, PA, has been named as a New
Hampshire Top Doc by NH Magazine. Robert Friedlander, Jr., MD, of
the regional group practice, has been named the top physician in
the field of hematology/oncology, as judged by other physicians
in the state.
Friedlander
is featured as a "Top Doc" in Aprils edition of
New Hampshire Magazine. The distinction is the result of a survey
sent to New Hampshire physicians by the magazine. The survey asked,
"If you or a loved one were sick, which physician would you
choose?" This year, the magazine received its highest return
rate in the survey 13 percent, according to the magazines
assistant editor, Sheila Frost.
Thirty-two
physicians were nominated in the field of hematology/oncology, Frost
said.
Dr. Friedlander joined New Hampshire Oncology-Hematology, PA, in
1987. He is founder of Innisfree Cancer Help, a non-profit organization
that was created to help ease the distress of the cancer experience.
Today, the former organizations website, www.InnisfreeCancerHelp.org,
is a valued resource for information and events from around the
state for cancer patients and their families.
Dr.
Friedlander sees patients in greater Manchester and in the Lakes
Region. New Hampshire Oncology-Hematologys nine physicians
practice in five locations in New Hampshire Hooksett, Concord,
Laconia, Exeter, and Derry.
"Bob
is well deserving of this honor, and being recognized by so many
fellow physicians makes the honor that much more meaningful,"
said Denis Hammond, MD, himself a former recipient of the honor.
"He is a dedicated professional, with a strong sense of commitment
to his patients and the communities we serve. His patients and their
families have great confidence in him as a physician and caregiver.
We at NHOH are extremely proud of Bob and his achievements."
The
magazine publishes the names of "Top Docs" in 42 specialty
medical fields.
