About Dr. Peter Yaswinski
Philosophy of care
My partner and I treat people like family. We respond to questions immediately, and when we order tests, we call every patient with results ourselves. I make those calls daily before going home for supper, so patients can make informed decisions about their care. We work closely with colleagues at Lehigh Valley Hospital–Cedar Crest and refer patients to specialists in infertility and gynecologic oncology. We follow screening guidelines for tests like bone density to refer patients for appropriate treatment.
Why I entered medicine
I grew up in the Lehigh Valley, where many family friends were physicians, and I admired how they cared for patients. I wanted to help people get and stay healthy and was most interested in delivering babies. Though I no longer practice obstetrics, I’ve been here since the 1980s and have delivered about 3,000 babies for area families. Many patients I delivered bring their own children back to see me, which is very rewarding.
Education and training
I earned my Doctor of Medicine degree from Drexel University. I completed my internship at Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and my residency at the Medical Center of Delaware.
Community involvement
I’ve served on an advisory board for the local Red Cross and contribute to that organization and the Salvation Army, a major provider for local poor and homeless people. Many homeless are veterans who served their country and are now sick. The Salvation Army cares for many of them. I appreciate their work for vets who have come on hard times.
Personal interests
Beyond spending time with my wife, a local bookkeeper, and our two college-age kids, I enjoy outdoor activities like water sports, hiking, fishing, and camping. I grew up that way—my parents always had us outdoors. We usually take a beach trip to Cape May in the summer. After working indoors all week, it’s nice to be waterskiing or in nature.
