28 Rothman Physicians Recognized as 2025 Orlando Magazine Finest Doctors

Orlando Magazine has recognized 28 different Rothman Orthopaedics physicians as Finest Doctors in Orlando, with 23 receiving Premier Doctors Status, 14 recognized as Top Doctors, as well as 9 honored as both Premier and Top Doctors. Orlando Magazine’s Premier Doctor’s List was assembled by DataJoe Research using an online peer-voting process, while reaching out to medical groups and individual doctors to facilitate participation, as well as referencing other government and Internet sources to establish credibility/eligibility of doctors. To be eligible, doctors must have current, active license status with the state regulatory board.

“Peer recognition is one of the greatest honors in medicine, and having almost 30 (about 80%) Rothman Orthopaedics at AdventHealth physicians included in this year’s Orlando Magazine Finest Doctors edition reflects the remarkable strength and consistency of our entire team,” said Dr. Daryl Osbahr, Chairman of Orthopedic Surgery for Rothman Orthopaedics at AdventHealth. “This level of representation underscores the dedication, expertise, and innovation our physicians bring to patient care every single day.”

He continued, “Combined with our recent success in the U.S. News & World Report rankings, this recognition demonstrates the growing momentum of our program and our ongoing commitment to delivering whole-person care at the highest level. We are grateful to our peers for their support and to the Orlando community for entrusting us with their care - it is that partnership that makes achievements like this possible.”
