Several years in a row, and again in 2019, Dr. Pappolla has been chosen as a Super Doctor and a Texas Top Doctor!
The Super Doctors Selection Process
The selection process for Super Doctors is a rigorous multi-step process designed to identify healthcare providers who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement.
Survey of Doctors
First, a pool of candidates is created. Each year Super Doctors invites doctors to nominate colleagues they know to be exceptional in their specified field. They are asked to consider the following question: "If you needed medical care in one of the following specialties, which doctor would you choose?" Numerous safeguards are in place to prevent ballot manipulation and doctors may not self-nominate.
Candidate Search
Research staff also contributes to the pool of candidates by searching medical databases, online sources, and publications for providers who have attained certain credentials, honors or professional achievements.
Research
Candidates are evaluated independently on 10 indicators of recognition.
