Dr. Connie McCaa has set her professional bar high. This week she was again ranked by Best Doctors, an international, independent medical resource, as one of the leading doctors in Mississippi. This is McCaa's 12th consecutive time on the list.
"We have 45,000 doctors in the U.S., so it is exceptional for Dr. McCaa to achieve such long recognition from her peers," said Beverly Jackson, media and communications liaison for Best Doctors Inc., in a statement.
Best Doctors listed 409 doctors in the state for the 2009-2010 rankings. Fellow physicians select those included through peer reviews as the best in their fields. Included are numerous other Jackson area physicians.
McCaa, an ophthalmologist practicing in Jackson and Flowood, received a doctorate in biochemistry and, in 1983, her medical degree from the University of Mississippi School of Medicine. She is one of the first surgeons to perform LASIK eye surgery in the country.
"It's always an honor to be included among the Best Doctors," McCaa said a statement "I know the patients are very aware of that list. I am especially honored that other physicians chose me."
