About Dr. Shari Leipzig
Our office has provided the highest level of general Obstetrics and Gynecology care since 1960. It has been my privilege to care for great grandmothers, grandmothers, mothers, and daughters and deliver their newborns here during the last 18 years. I completed my medical education at Drexel University, earning my Doctor of Medicine, followed by residencies in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center and Saint Vincent Catholic Medical Center. Additionally, I pursued a fellowship in Pelvic Surgery at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University. All ob/gyn problems are welcome and are cared for with kindness and discretion.
