Best Open Hysterectomy Doctors in Forest Hills, NY

I am dedicated to the surgical and medical management of women's cancer and also committed to advancing clinical and translational research in this field, with a focus on cancer genetics.

"I believe that pregnancy is a natural if unique phase in a woman's life. My job is to assure that each pregnancy is proceeding normally and intervene if it is not. Many pregnancies are medically straightforward. Some, such as twins or triplets, may be complex from the outset. In others, problems such as high blood pressure or pre-term labor may develop. I am fortunate to practice at the Weill Cornell campus of the New York Presbyterian Hospital where the latest technologies and superbly trained specialists are only a few steps or a phone call away. I still find each pregnancy and delivery extraordinary and exciting. "I chose to practice Ob/Gyn because I am able to care for women through the many stages of their reproductive lives. During my years of training and practice, I have developed several areas of special interest and expertise within gynecology. These include: - Minimally invasive gynecologic surgery including laparoscopic hysterectomy - Management and treatment (medical and surgical)of uterine fibroids - Evaluation and treatment of abnormal PAP smears Advances in pharmacology and surgical technology now offer multiple avenues for treatment of these and other gynecologic problems. I eduacte and work with my patients to help each one choose the most appropriate treatment path for her."

"My mission is to provide the highest standards of care in prevention, diagnosis and treatment of gynecologic cancers by incorporating the latest surgical approaches and practicing evidence based medicine. My practice promotes compassionate care with a focus on empowering women to be active participants in decision making regarding their health care, which ultimately allows them to make appropriate treatment choices."
