LOS ANGELES, CA, September 01, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Marisa C. Chang has been named a Southern California Rising Star by Super Doctors for the second year in a row and recognized by Vitals.com for the fourth straight year with the Patients Choice Award and Compassionate Doctor Recognition.

She is also on staff at UCLA's Comprehensive Headache Program. Rising Stars are identified as the top physicians in their field by their peers, who have been practicing less than 10 years and represent no more than 2.5% of neurologists in practice. Through Vitals.com patient's vote for and rate their physicians overall kindness, bedside manner and the difference the physician has made in their lives. "Being recognized for your accomplishments by your esteemed peers and colleagues and the difference you've made in your patients lives is a true honor," says Dr. Chang.

"I'm very proud of everything Dr. Chang has accomplished in such a short time," says Dr. Sheldon Jordan, neurologist at Neurological Associates of West Los Angeles. "I am delighted that our colleagues and Super Doctors have again recognized her as a Rising Star in Neurology.
