AKRON – Six physicians from Crystal Clinic Orthopaedic Center were named to the prestigious 2017-18 Best Doctors in America list, including Gordon Bennett, MD; Richard Brower, MD; David Kay, MD; Jeffrey Noble, MD; William Pakan, MD; and T.J. Reilly, MD.

Only 4 percent of doctors in America earn this prestigious honor, which is decided by impartial peer review in which doctors who excel in their specialties are selected by their peers in the profession.

“This is an incredible honor that I’m humbled to share with five of my colleagues here at Crystal Clinic,” said Kay. “Of the seven orthopaedic doctors in the greater Akron area recognized by Best Doctors, it’s quite impressive that six of us are from the same practice.”

Bennett, Crystal Clinic chairman of the board, added, “Crystal Clinic Orthopaedic Center is proud to have so many of its physicians selected by their peers as the best orthopaedic surgeons in Northeast Ohio, which is a testament to the exceptional quality of care they provide.”
