Dr. Igor Elman Discusses His Approach to Personalized Medicine

I believe the relationship between a patient and their doctor remains a treasured and essential pillar in promoting a person's well-being. I find that trust is built on a foundation of the physician's capabilities to navigate both the patient's health background and helping to accommodate their individualized health goals. My MDVIP-affiliated, personalized medicine practice allows me spend more time with each of my patients to help them understand their unique needs. I have seen this dedication and patience become especially hard to find in today's high-demand and fast-paced practice of traditional medicine. 

I also offer conveniences, like same- or next-day appointments, which may be found in concierge medicine practices. My experience in helping you work toward improved health comes in part from being dually board certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine & American Osteopathic Association, followed by four intense years of practicing internal medicine as a full-time hospitalist at St. Francis Hospital in Roslyn, along with years practicing in a high-volume, busy Long Island top cardiac center. As a hospitalist, I was the lead attending physician, helping to manage my patients’ care and treatment plans with other medical specialists in the hospital. Though a considerable number of the patients I encountered were geriatric, many also had serious cardiovascular diseases, while some had complicated chronic disorders that needed closer attention.

I maintain employment and admitting privileges at Montefiore Nyack Hospital in Nyack, New York. My experience working on some of the sickest and most challenging cases has given me greater perspective to help guide you toward maintaining your health and wellness for many years to come. I hope to share my fitness hobbies and passions with you on your path to a healthier lifestyle!
