Myomectomy near Richmond Hill, NY

Care Philosophy: While so many parts of medicine are about treating long term conditions and illness, I appreciate my part in healthcare helping healthy women manage their pregnancies and births. I may only see my patients for the course of several months for their prenatal care, well women visits, or gynecologic issues, but I use that time to listen to women express their concerns and meet their goals regarding their obstetric and gynecologic health. We are committed to delivering the best care and an exceptional patient experience. We are devoted to providing services that are patient-centered and compassionate, and care for you as a person.

Care Philosophy: " One of the most rewarding aspects of practicing obstetrics and gynecology is the ability to attend to a patient's medical needs from childbirth through menopause, and to develop long-term relationships with individualized treatment plans. " "I believe in providing a comfortable and secure environment for my patients where there can be an open and honest flow of information. I encourage my patients to engage in a frank dialogue so that I can provide them with the medical care most suited to their particular needs."
