Top Doctors
The Top Doctors in Southwest Missouri
When your health or the health of a family member is on the line, where do you turn for help? All 545 experts on our annual Top Doctors list were nominated by their peers, and they represent the best in medical and surgical care.

Find a Doctor
Our Best Top Doctors List Yet
As part of a continued effort to strengthen the quality of our annual Top Doctors list, we added a new process in 2023: a medical review board. This was a team of local physicians from several hospitals and specialty categories who agreed to look at the list (after voting had been completed and before the list went to the printer) to point out any red flags that might be obvious to those in the medical field but not immediately obvious to us. These physicians were not able to change anyone’s ranking or affect the voting results, but they did help identify places where we needed to add clarifying notes, for example if someone’s specialty category was inaccurate or if a physician has retired from practice.

How It Works
Top Doctors is an annual nomination-based project in which we ask physicians in the southwest Missouri area to vote for doctors in various specialties. We ask the doctors to vote for the physicians they would trust to care for their family and friends—experts who exemplify excellence in their specialties.
This list is a service to our readers, giving them a doctor’s perspective regarding the top doctors in dozens of specialty areas. The list is intended to allow patients to see and celebrate their doctors who make the list. It also gives health care seekers a place to see doctors highlighted for achievement and reputation and can be a great tool for finding the right doctors for their needs.
To complete this nomination project, 417 Magazine has contracted DataJoe Research to conduct nominations using an online ballot for collecting, vetting and tallying the votes. DataJoe Research is a survey/research company specializing in data collection and verification and conducts various nominations across the United States on behalf of publishers..
Summary
DataJoe Research is a software and research company specializing in data collection and verification, and conducts various nominations across the United States on behalf of publishers. To create the "top doctors" list, DataJoe Research facilitated an online peer-nomination process, also referencing government sources. In addition, DataJoe often conducts media analysis through Internet research to factor in public perception. DataJoe then tallied the nominations per category for each doctor to isolate the top nominees in each category. After collecting nominations and factoring additional information from the media analysis, DataJoe checked and confirmed that each published winner had a current, active license status with the state regulatory board. If we were not able to find evidence of a doctor's current, active registration with the state regulatory board, that doctor was excluded from the list. In addition, any doctor who has been disciplined, up to the time-frame of our review process for an infraction by the state regulatory board, was excluded from the list. Finally, DataJoe presented the tallied result to the magazine staff for final review and adjustments.
Final Note
We recognize that there are many good doctors who are not shown in this representative list. This is only a sampling of the huge array of talented professionals within the region. Inclusion in the list is based on the opinions of responding doctors in the region and the results of our research campaign. We take time and energy to ensure fair voting, although we understand that the results of this survey nomination are not an objective metric. We certainly do not discount the fact that many, many good and effective doctors may not appear on the list.

Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Ozarks
417-875-3500
For families with children in the hospital, being close by is vital but not always a possibility. This is where Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) of the Ozarks steps in. With two houses in Springfield, one at Mercy and one at CoxHealth, they have impacted over 15,000 families through their program, providing a place to stay, warm meals and incredible support for those seeking medical treatment in Springfield.
“Illness doesn’t discriminate. Any family can experience the illness of a child and most people describe it as the worst experience they’ve been through,” says Bonnie Keller, President and CEO of RMHC of the Ozarks. "For us to be able to be there for families that have hospitalized children and take away as many of their daily worries as we can, that’s what drives me.”
RMHC provides as many resources as they can for families to eliminate worries over food, laundry and transportation in a home-like environment for however long their child is receiving treatment.
Volunteers and donors can help support RMHC’s mission in a variety of ways. There is something for all skill sets, from cooking, cleaning and gardening to doing office work or checking in on families. Another big way to provide support for RMHC is through their Meals from the Heart dinner program to provide dinner for the families staying in the house. To find out more about RMHC volunteer opportunities visit rmchcozarks.org.
Make-A-Wish Foundation of Missouri & Kansas
314-205-9474
Bre Colombo was only 17 years old when she received the heartbreaking diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Plans for her senior year suddenly shifted to talk of treatment plans and side effects. “Make-A-Wish stepped into my life at a time filled with so much uncertainty, when I really needed them the most,” Colombo says. She used her wish to go to the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas with her family, offering them all a much-needed distraction. Flash forward six years later, now in remission and having graduated with a degree in social work, Colombo works as the Volunteer Manager for the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Missouri & Kansas. “I absolutely fell in love with the mission because I’ve seen firsthand the power of a wish and what it can do not only for a wish kid but also for that child’s family,” she says.
Make-A-Wish Foundation has grown their influence in 417-land with more than 139 wishes granted over the last three years. “Being able to grant that many wishes in the area is so impactful. Every wish is just as unique as the child who makes the wish,” she says. Despite having so many wishes granted in the area, they have over 80 children on a waitlist in the region. To fulfill these wishes, Make-A-Wish needs more volunteers to act as “wish granters,” walking the child through their wish journey and adding extra magic along the way. To find out more about the volunteer application process, visit their website.
Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals
417-269-6853
Most families would never foresee themselves needing the help of Children’s Miracle Network (CMN). Tim Siebert, Executive Director of CMN Hospitals of CoxHealth, says for many this can change in an instant. “It’s the last thing they think about, then all of a sudden there’s a car accident or major diagnosis of some kind and it can change their lives in a major, major way,” Siebert says. “It’s financially and emotionally draining for the entire family, so for us to be able to provide resources and alleviate some of the burden means a lot.”
The biggest thing Siebert sees as a distinguishing factor from other entities is that 100% of the proceeds donated go straight towards helping kids due to CoxHealth funding all their operating costs. The nonprofit helps impact children and families in a variety of ways, from covering the cost of prescriptions to purchasing major life-saving equipment for the NICU and everything in between. But regardless of what they're focusing on, their mission always remains the same: to provide the best care possible for kids.
One of the biggest things those looking to support their mission can do is donate. Big and small donations all add up to make it possible for CMN to be able to award funds. Siebert and his team focus on helping others find the delight in giving. “We’re just the facilitators,” he says. “We want to make giving a joy for people. We want them to see just how impactful their gifts really are.”
