Care Philosophy: Dr. Melanie Marin has been a practicing gynecologist at New York Physicians (newyorkphysicians.com) since 1997. She practices office gynecology and gynecologic surgery. From the first time you call to become a patient through every interaction, you will be treated with respect and courtesy. Prior to your first visit, you will be sent forms so that you can fill out your medical history at your own pace. You will also be given the information to register for the secure patient portal so that you can communicate electronically with Dr. Marin and her staff through a private messaging portal. Your private information will stay private. After you arrive in the office and check in, Dr. Marin will greet you personally and invite you into her office to listen to your story, your questions and your concerns before the examination. When your results are ready, even if they are completely normal, you will receive an email message that asks you to return to the patient portal to view the communication from Dr. Marin or her staff about your results and any needed follow up. You can ask any further questions through the portal or ask Dr. Marin to give you a call. If you are more comfortable communicating by phone or in person, you can call the office or make a follow up appointment to review your results and questions. After receiving excellent medical care, the most important remaining issues are that you understand your care and feel comfortable asking questions if you do not.
