Get to know Obstetrician-Gynecologist Dr. Joan K. Berman, who serves patients in New York, New York.
Dr. Berman has been providing personalized, compassionate gynecological care to patients in New York City for over 25 years. At her practice in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, she and her knowledgeable staff take pride in cultivating long-standing relationships with many patients while welcoming new ones.
Treating patients at every stage of life – from adolescence to adulthood, menopause and beyond – Dr. Berman’s diverse medical experience includes a two-year training program in sex therapy and over 20 years consulting for Columbia University’s Student Health Center. She believes these experiences give her a unique insight into treating and addressing complex issues many women find difficult to discuss.
Born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, Dr. Berman’s medical career began with academic excellence in her hometown. She graduated summa cum laude from the University of Arizona, where she was a Baird Scholar and inducted into Phi Beta Kappa and Phi Kappa Phi honor societies.
After earning her medical degree from the University of Arizona, she worked in a research laboratory, volunteered at a diabetes clinic on the Papago Reservation, and served with a surgical team in Papua New Guinea. She then chose to do her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at The Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City where she maintains privileges and is an Assistant Clinical Professor.
Passionate about her profession, she is board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG). The mission of the ABOG is to define standards, certify obstetricians and gynecologists, and facilitate continuous learning to advance knowledge, practice, and professionalism in women’s health.
Committed to keeping up with modern advances in medicine, Dr. Berman regularly attends conferences for continuing education. She is a member of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the North American Menopause Society, and will be a certified Menopause practitioner.
Obstetrics and Gynecology is the medical specialty that encompasses the two subspecialties of obstetrics and gynecology. An obstetrician-gynecologist, or OB-GYN, is a healthcare professional who specializes in female reproductive health.
With over four decades of experience, Dr. Berman is the recipient of Patients’ Choice Award (2008, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018) and Compassionate Doctor Recognition (2018).
On a more personal note, she speaks both English and Spanish.
