A board-certified endocrinologist, Jeffrey Powell, M.D., joined MKMG in August.
A graduate of Albert Einstein College of Medicine, he received his medical degree in 1995. After that, he completed his residency in 1998 and fellowship in 2001 at New York Presbyterian Hospital Center. During his last year of fellowship, he gained subspecialty experience in reproductive endocrinology, metabolic bone diseases, and gestational diabetes.
Dr. Powell said he chose to pursue a career in this specialty because he enjoys the diversity and analytical nature of the field, as well as the patient interaction. “The study of endocrinology encompasses a wide variety of glands and their hormones,” Dr. Powell said. “These include the adrenal, pituitary, and thyroid glands, as well as the pancreas, testes, and ovaries. Therefore we diagnose and treat all sorts of conditions, including diabetes, thyroid disorders, osteoporosis, and other hormonal disorders. These conditions often have systemic ramifications, with symptoms occurring throughout the body."
"I enjoy working with patients to interpret symptoms and analyze test results; identifying the underlying causes of problems; and helping patients select the best options for treatment.”
Dr. Powell sees patients in MKMG’s Mount Kisco office. To schedule an appointment with him, call 242-1370 or contact your primary care physician for a referral. |
