SheMD: Meryl Kahan, MD

The mission of SheMD is to deliver outstanding gynecology and medical aesthetics services to the residents of the Little Neck and Douglaston neighborhoods of Queens, New York City, New York, in addition to the Great Neck area of Nassau County. 

Board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist Dr. Meryl E. Kahan, MD, FACOG, MSCP, launched SheMD in 2023 with the goal of providing women with compassionate and comprehensive care.

Dr. Kahan brings a wealth of training and experience to her role. She began her studies at Brandeis University in Waltham, Massachusetts, before earning her medical degree at the State University of New York Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, New York. 

She then completed her residency in Obstetrics & Gynecology at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and subsequently worked for several years in both private and hospital-based practice as a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist before opening SheMD. 

Though Dr. Kahan enjoys working with patients of all ages, starting from adolescence, one common theme she noticed throughout her years in practice was the unmet needs of women in perimenopause and beyond. As a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP), she has a special interest in menopause care, hormone therapy and management, and sexual dysfunction. 

She also appreciates that for many patients, how one feels about their looks can have a significant impact on wellness. Therefore, at SheMD, patients can also conveniently address their aesthetic goals with Dr. Kahan, who is board-certified in Aesthetics and offers a wide range of aesthetic treatments.

Patient-centered care is a hallmark of SheMD, and those who entrust Dr. Kahan with their care appreciate the time she takes to get to know her patients as distinct individuals. These connections enable Dr. Kahan to create a custom-tailored approach for each set of needs. 

Wellness exams are the starting point for women’s health care. These visits offer women the chance to get Pap smears and other screenings. They also receive information on how to enhance their overall health and wellness.

Women have access to the latest contraception options, menopause care, hormone therapy, and much more. Services span all the needs a woman encounters from adolescence through adulthood, menopause, and beyond. The practice also provides medical aesthetics options that include Botox® and dermal fillers.

The best way to learn more about all that SheMD has to offer is to book a time to sit down for a discussion with Dr. Kahan. Online booking is one option, or call their friendly office staff during normal business hours.
