For medical practitioners

Help build a referral guide doctors can actually trust.

Answer a few clinically specific questions about who you would genuinely refer to. Individual nominations remain confidential.

Methodology

Recognition reflects referral confidence.

The survey uses clinically relevant wording such as “Who would you refer to for knee replacement?” Doctors may nominate up to three colleagues and order does not matter.

GPs answer at the level they actually refer—for example cardiology, ENT or general surgery. Specialists answer more specific subspecialty or procedural questions.

Verification, anti-gaming checks, referral-source diversity, and minimum evidence thresholds are applied before publication. Doctors below the threshold are simply not listed.

01

Verify the nominator

Only eligible registered practitioners contribute to peer recognition.

02

Match question to referral reality

GP questions remain at specialist-entry level; specialist questions can be procedure or subspecialty specific.

03

Control concentration

One clinic or hospital group cannot dominate a category through clustered nominations.

04

Apply thresholds before publication

Recognition bands are based on pre-set rules rather than editorial preference for particular names.
