Chosen for pioneering the revolutionary hair transplant technique known as Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation, Dr. Bernstein has been selected by a peer-review process from a pool of board-certified physicians who are given an anonymous and confidential opportunity to nominate outstanding doctors in various medical specialties and sub-specialties.

Twelve thousand forms are sent for each selection process.

The medical professionals are asked to nominate the best doctors in a particular field. New York Magazine published the opinions of nominators who took into account Dr. Bernstein's education, residency, board certification, hospital appointment, disciplinary record and reputation for dealing with patients of his sub-specialty, surgical hair restoration.

Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. is a research and information company which publishes a variety of books that seek to guide patients on how to find the best medical care.
