With our compassionate approach to care and access to the latest advances in technology, we offer a full spectrum of women’s healthcare services in New York.
We are here for you in your healthcare journey, whether you’re starting a family, need routine screenings, or require the most complicated gynecological cancer care.
Innovative Approaches
WMCHealth offers the region’s most advanced minimally invasive approach to gynecologic surgical care. You can receive in-office surgical care at practice locations throughout New York that use the latest techniques and technology, including advanced robot-assisted surgical procedures. Our care teams are uniquely trained to provide specialty consultation and management of fibroids, chronic pelvic pain, adenomyosis, abnormal uterine bleeding, female sexual dysfunction, endometriosis, painful bladder syndrome, cervical dysplasia, and more.
The Women’s Imaging Center at Westchester Medical Center features an advanced 3D mammography and tomosynthesis unit. This technology allows us to produce high-quality 3D images, which have better accuracy and reduce the chance you’ll need additional screenings for breast cancer.
