Top docs in the executive ranks

Posted by Elizabeth Cooney April 7, 2008 06:01 PM

Three Boston healthcare honchos made the Modern Physician list of the 50 most powerful physician executives.

Dr. James Mongan of Partners HealthCare System was the business publication's top doctor, followed by Dr. Donald Berwick of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement.

Dr. Gary Gottlieb of Brigham and Women's Hospital trailed his colleagues in 33rd place. But that wasn't far behind 29th place Dr. Elias Zerhouni, director of the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Julie Gerberding, director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, followed at 34th.
