Joan Zeidman, MD, FACOG

Specialties: Gynecology

Dr. Zeidman graduated from Temple University School of Medicine in 1987, having completed her Bachelor’s degree in Individual and Family Studies at Pennsylvania State University in 1980 and a post-baccalaureate program at Temple University in 1983. She completed her residency in OB/GYN at Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia in 1991. Dr. Zeidman was drawn to OB/GYN because of its comprehensive nature of total women’s health care from adolescence through the reproductive years into the post-menopausal years, allowing her to form long lasting relationships with her patients while also engaging her highly technical skills in the operating room, procedure room, and delivery room.

In 2008, after delivering approximately 3,000 babies over 21 years, Dr. Zeidman decided to focus her energies and skills to gynecology only. This has allowed her the opportunity to spend more time in the office with her GYN patients, as well as offer more services to them in the comfort of the office rather than in the hospital. Dr. Zeidman’s particular interests include general gynecology across the life span. She especially enjoys teaching adolescents about their changing bodies and their reproductive health options, as well as engaging with women through their menopausal transition and helping them to live full active healthy lives through their post-menopausal years. She has a particular interest in vulvovaginal diseases and infections as well as office-based procedures, including hysteroscopies, endometrial ablations, and many other procedures that are frequently done in the hospital operating room, but now can be done in the comfort of the office.
