A board-certified Obstetrician & Gynecologist, Dr. Alyssa Dweck joined MKMG in November 1999. A native of Scarsdale, NY, she earned a Master’s degree in Nutrition from Columbia University in 1986, then went on to earn her medical degree at Pennsylvania’s Hahnemann University School of Medicine in 1990.

For the next four years, she served her residency at Lankeneau Hospital, where they delivered approximately 2,200 babies each year. As a resident, she worked busy rotations and assisted physicians in areas such as deliveries, infertility, and gynecologic oncology.

“My residency was extremely valuable, because it gave me a high volume of hands-on training,” she said. “I enjoyed the breadth of experiences I had.”

Giving birth for the first time during her residency also gave her a new perspective on her profession.

“First-hand experience gave me a new respect for the fears and challenges childbirth brings,” she said. “I’ve been a different obstetrician ever since.”

In 1994, Dr. Dweck joined a busy practice in New Jersey, while her husband completed medical training in the area. A year later, they returned to New York, and Dr. Dweck joined Women’s Medical Associates of Westchester in Mount Kisco. She practiced there for over four years before coming to MKMG.

Since she joined MKMG, Dr. Dweck said she feels as if she has “never practiced anywhere else,” and she appreciates the broad spectrum of services that support her practice. “At MKMG, I can perform procedures like D&C’s and ultrasound right in the office, which makes it easier and more convenient for my patients.”

Dr. Dweck sees patients in both the Mount Kisco and Brewster (Milltown Road) offices. She can be reached in Mount Kisco at 242-1380 and in Brewster at 278-4300.
