Our Methodology — How We Rank California Surgeons

Most surgeon ratings reflect hospital reputation or marketing. Trusted Surgeon ranks the individual surgeon using objective, data-driven criteria.

What we measure

• Outcomes & complication rates for the specific surgeon and procedure
• Case volume — how often the surgeon performs your procedure
• Board certification & credentials, verified against primary sources
• Disciplinary and licensing history

Why it's trustworthy

We are 100% independent — we accept no funding from hospitals, surgeons, or device manufacturers, so rankings reflect data, not relationships. We focus on California, which lets us go deeper than national directories. Request your shortlist.
