Seven LSU Orthopaedic Surgeons Featured in New Orleans Magazine's 750 Top Doctors
For more than 30 years, Castle Connolly has helped patients identify highly qualified healthcare providers through its trusted Top Doctors program. Physicians are nominated by other licensed doctors and evaluated through a rigorous, physician-led review process.
Each nominee is assessed based on professional qualifications, education, hospital and faculty appointments, research leadership, reputation, disciplinary history, and available patient outcomes. The review also considers interpersonal qualities such as communication, empathy, trust, and the ability to listen effectively.
Castle Connolly maintains the nation’s largest network of peer-nominated physicians and also recognizes Rising Stars—early-career doctors who are emerging as leaders in their fields. Selected physicians may be featured in regional publications and listed in Castle Connolly’s online and print directories.
Castle Connolly is part of Everyday Health Group, which provides trusted healthcare information and educational resources to millions of consumers and medical professionals.
Dr. Vinod Dasa was featured alongside other LSU Orthopaedic faculty members in the August 2026 issue of New Orleans Magazine. The issue recognizes 750 doctors across South Louisiana in a wide range of medical specialties, making inclusion on the list a significant achievement.
