Several Department of Surgery faculty members were named Top Surgeons in their field by their peers, according to a Louisville Magazine survey. The results were published in the magazine's August edition. The Top Surgeons were selected by a survey that was mailed in May 2010 to all physicians who are members of the Greater Louisville Medical Society. In the survey, Louisville Magazine asked the question: If you or a member of your family needed surgery, who among Louisville-area physicians would you choose or recommend most highly to perform the following procedures?

It is important to note that several of the procedures done by Department of Surgery faculty were not included. However, of those that were, several Department faculty were named, including:
