Melissa Aylesworth, PA-C, MMS

Physician Assistant (OB-GYN)
1245 S Cedar Crest Blvd, Ste 201, Allentown, PA
Philosophy of care I want you to feel heard. I believe in shared decision-making and giving you a voice to advocate for yourself within evidence-based practice. I want you to understand your body and feel free to ask any question, knowing you will receive honest and nonjudgmental answers. I do not want you to feel like a number: I believe in personalized care aimed at treating the whole you, not just your conditions or lab work. Why I entered medicine I entered the medical field because I love science and wanted to help people, but specializing in women’s health was a calling. Obstetrics and gynecology (OB-GYN) is a personal area of medicine, and some patients feel anxious coming to appointments. I will always do my best to make you feel comfortable. I genuinely love seeing my patients year after year, watching their children grow, and caring for women across their full lifespan. Community involvement I have a special interest in mental health. I received a Perinatal Mental Health Certification from Postpartum Support International and am a founding member of the “WAVES” program within LVPG OB-GYN, developed in 2022 to help women struggling with mental health during pregnancy and postpartum. I also love teaching and educate the next generation of physician assistants through lecturing and precepting students from local universities. I am passionate about social justice and raising up those marginalized in our society, serving as an active member of the OB-GYN diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) committee. Education I earned my Master’s in Physician Assistant Studies from Arcadia University and completed my Bachelor’s at Gettysburg College. Personal interests I love to cook and bake, garden, sew, read, and do creative projects around the house. I enjoy hiking, visiting national parks, checking out local restaurants, seeing Broadway shows, and traveling to new states and countries.
