Anesthesiologists Hankes, Hart and Stanley Named to The Best Doctors in America List

Diane K. Hankes, DO, Andrew P. Hart, MD, and Thomas E. Stanley, III, MD, of Asheville Anesthesia Associates, have been named among the Best Doctors in America for 2011-2012. This is the first year that Dr. Hankes, who joined Asheville Anesthesia in 2009, has received this recognition. This is the eighth consecutive time that Dr. Hart and the fifth time that Dr. Stanley have earned this prestigious honor.

Compiled by Boston-based Best Doctors, Inc., the Best Doctors in America database is the result of an exhaustive survey of more than 45,000 physicians in the United States. Only those doctors recognized to be in the top 3-5% of their specialty earn the honor of being named one of the Best Doctors in America.

Over the last 15 years, Best Doctors has earned worldwide acclaim for its remarkable database of physicians. The Best Doctors database is the world's premier effort to create a validated, peer-reviewed database of excellence in medicine. The Best Doctors methodology is rigorously impartial and strictly independent. Doctors cannot pay to be included in the database and are not paid to complete the survey. The only way to be recognized as one of the Best Doctors in America is for a doctor to earn high marks for clinical ability from his or her peers.

Asheville Anesthesia Associates provides anesthesia services to hospitals and surgery centers throughout Western North Carolina.
