Metairie Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is proud to announce that Dr. Robert Douglas Bostick III, founder and board-certified orthopedic surgeon, has been named a Castle Connolly Top Doctor for 2026 — marking 10 years that he has been recognized among the nation’s most trusted and highly regarded physicians.
This distinguished honor reaffirms Dr. Bostick’s commitment to delivering outstanding orthopedic and sports medicine care to patients in Metairie, Louisiana and the Gulf Coast region.
What It Means to Be a Castle Connolly Top Doctor
The Castle Connolly Top Doctors® designation is one of the most respected honors in healthcare. Physicians who earn this recognition are considered among the top 7 % of all practicing doctors in the United States, based on a detailed, peer-driven selection process that emphasizes professional achievement, clinical excellence, and compassionate patient care.
Unlike many awards that rely on advertising or popularity, the Castle Connolly program begins with peer nominations from fellow physicians. A physician-led research team then conducts a thorough screening of each nominee’s education, training, board certifications, clinical outcomes, hospital affiliations, disciplinary history, and reputation among colleagues. Only those who meet these rigorous standards are included in the annual Top Doctors list.
This means patients can confidently trust that a Castle Connolly Top Doctor has been vetted by other healthcare professionals who understand what excellence in medicine truly represents.
