MUSC docs cited among top in Ladies Home Journal Two MUSC physicians are the only doctors in South Carolina cited among a listing of Top Doctors for Women from Coast to Coast in the April Ladies' Home Journal. For the Southeast region, which includes 10 Southeastern states, under the category of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Paul Underwood, M.D., professor of obstetrics and gynecology, was among the 10 physicians selected. Under the category of gynecologic oncology, Matthew Kohler, M.D., director of gynecologic oncology and associate professor of obstetrics and gynecology, was listed. The directory lists doctors in the three women's health fields: obstetrics/gynecology, gynecological oncology and breast cancer. The list was developed by Castle Connolly, the publisher of the consumer guide America's Top Doctors. Connolly's team of physicians and researchers followed a rigorous screening process to select the nation's top doctors. Using mail and telephone surveys, electronic ballots and other research, they asked area physicians to identify highly skilled, exceptional doctors. Then did a careful screening of the doctors' education and professional experience before making the final selection to the list.
