Our Approach to Care

Tailored and Comprehensive Women's Health Services

We offer a full range of women's integrated health services, provided by a multidisciplinary team of women's health and wellness experts who work together to customize your care and provide the most effective treatment. Our goal is to partner with you in shared decision-making and empower you with knowledge, support, and the best approaches to protect and improve your health.

Minimally invasive gynecologic procedures

Our surgeons use minimally invasive laparoscopy, robotic surgery, vaginal surgery, and embolization approaches that result in smaller or no incisions, less discomfort after surgery, and a quicker recovery than open surgical procedures. Our gynecologic surgeons and interventional radiologists are especially experienced in the latest techniques to treat uterine fibroids, endometriosis, uterovaginal prolapse, and incontinence. Some women benefit from single-port surgery, where the entire operation is completed through one small incision — typically in the belly button.

Comprehensive pregnancy care

Expectant mothers can receive all the care they need before, during, and after childbirth from NewYork-Presbyterian's pregnancy care teams. We've provided the highest-quality, comprehensive women's health care for well over a hundred years. Our highly skilled ob-gyns offer clinical expertise and compassionate care to women with routine pregnancies, tailoring your prenatal care to your unique health needs, personal philosophies, and preferences. Our renowned maternal-fetal medicine program is headed by academic leaders who have advanced knowledge in pregnancy complications. We also have specialty programs dedicated to treating complex pregnancies. These programs feature doctors with advanced training and expertise in the care of women with other health challenges, such as heart or blood disorders, risk of stroke, gestational diabetes, and those carrying infants known to have a congenital condition.

Fertility and reproductive care

Our fertility experts understand how challenging it can be for women who are trying to conceive but are having trouble doing so. The Ronald O. Perelman and Claudia Cohen Center for Reproductive Medicine at Weill Cornell Medicine and the Columbia University Fertility Center are nationally respected for providing exceptional fertility and reproductive endocrinology services — including experience caring for women with other health issues — with excellent results.
