Philosophy of care | My philosophy is to improve each patient's quality of life as well as their understanding of allergic disease. My goal is to partner with patients to determine the right treatment plan for them. | Why I entered medicine | I entered medicine because of my love of science and desire to help people. Allergy immunology is a rapidly evolving field in terms of our understanding of disease and available treatments. It is also one that affects so many people. I love the longitudinal care I can provide for patients young and old and see their improved quality of life at subsequent visits. | Community involvement | My husband and I always contribute to gift drives during the holiday season. We are interested in other opportunities to give back to the community and serve charities. | Personal interests | I love to be outdoors and hike with my husband, Dan, our Chiweenie, Porkchop, and our two young children.

Philosophy of care | No doubt I believe that I strive to treat my patients as if they were my own family or friends. While I may see babies born every day - and in fact have seen hundreds in my career - for my patients, it may be their first so it's scary and exciting and emotional. When most people are asked what was the most important moment in their lives, a common answer is the day their children were born. I keep this in mind as I care for my patients. | Why I entered medicine | My father is a scientist and my mother a nurse, so I suppose I combined the two in my pursuit of a medical degree. For as long as I can remember, I wanted to have a career in medicine. First it was veterinary, then pediatrics, and in medical school, I found the joy of obstetrics and gynecology. The science of medicine continues to amaze me, and the human element is what makes me truly love what I do. Women of diverse backgrounds with incredible stories and journeys make this field so rewarding. | Community involvement | I was born and raised in Topton, Pa., and my husband and I are active in a local community outreach organization based there. The group organizes community events as well as raising money for local groups and community members in need. I also have school-age children, and so I try to volunteer to help in their school when I can. I can also be found with my kids in tow in 5K events in the area! | Personal interests | Since I was raised in this area, I have most of my extended family nearby so I spend quite a bit of time with them. My husband, kids and I enjoy spending time outdoors, hiking, biking and playing sports in the backyard. I LOVE the beach and swimming. I also enjoy reading, and especially reading on the beach! For exercise, I try to run when I can and really enjoy Zumba, which is so fun that it doesn't feel like exercise at all. Dr. Flicker is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Her top areas of expertise are Salpingo-Oophorectomy and Hysterectomy.

Philosophy of care | I treat my patients as I would my own family members or how I would want to be treated. I realize different life experiences and backgrounds mean not everyone has the same ideas about how to handle a disease. I will do my best to inform and guide you in a medical treatment plan that works for you. | Why I entered medicine | I cannot think of a more exciting way to work with people from all backgrounds and life experiences. OB-GYN allows me to work with you through some of the most trying – and triumphant – moments of your life. I love hands-on medicine and thoroughly enjoy the fast pace and sometimes chaotic nature of obstetrics and emergency GYN surgery. | Community involvement | I enjoy outreach through the Center for Women's Medicine. | Personal interests | As a Colorado girl I love skiing and hiking and everything the mountains have to offer. I am also an avid traveler. If I’m not at work, you can guarantee I'll be on a flight to somewhere around the world. I also enjoy global cuisine and cooking, as well as playing the harp and piano in my free time. Dr. Giagni is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT). Her top areas of expertise are Preeclampsia, Vaginal Bleeding in Pregnancy, Premature Infant, Hysterectomy, and Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).

Philosophy of care | One of the most important things to me is educating patients about gynecologic and obstetric care, which often includes talking about what is normal and not normal. I like to talk with patients in a conversational way that allows them to feel involved in their care. I generally want patients to lead the visit and talk about what’s most important to them, as opposed to me talking about what I think is most important. That’s part of what patient-centered care is about – having patients advocate for their own health care and having doctors respond to patients’ main concerns. | Why I entered medicine | I always loved science as kid and was exposed to medicine through my mom, who is a nurse, and two sisters who are also physicians. I tried to consider other science-related careers but always came back to medicine—I almost couldn’t get away from doing it. I became interested in obstetrics and gynecology when my older sister was an OB-GYN resident but really fell in love with it in my own third-year rotation. No other specialty was as exciting and interesting to me as OB-GYN. | Community involvement | I’m part of the Pennsylvania Medical Society, but on a more local level, I feel a real connection to the community from having delivered babies. Because I live in the area, I see plenty of patients whose children I delivered, and it’s always nice to run into them at the grocery, school, daycare – just about anywhere. It’s fun to watch babies I delivered grow, and to have parents tell their kids that I helped bring them into the world. | Personal interests | Outside of work, most of my time is taken up by activities with my kids. I do like to run and have done multiple races, including a few half marathons. Some of these are charitable events, and one that I do annually is the Susan B. Komen Race for the Cure, which supports the fight against breast cancer. I also like to travel, especially to warm and sunny places like Florida or the Bahamas.

Philosophy of care | Every patient has a story and a history that includes medical, personal and social information. As a physician, I can contribute to that story in positive ways with my medical knowledge and experience. I enjoy working with patients to better understand who they are and how I can add to their lives by improving health outcomes, from pregnancy to perimenopause and beyond. | Why I entered medicine | During my high school years, I worked as a nurse’s aide at a local nursing home. I loved the women that I met there and hearing their stories. Learning about their vibrant lives was humbling. After that experience, I knew that I wanted to pursue a “caring” profession. I was raised by my grandmother and great-grandmother and always had tremendous respect for women. I attended an all-women’s college and there I fell in love with the sciences. When I entered medical school, OB/GYN was an obvious choice where I could pursue a science I loved alongside female patients whom I respected and admired. | Personal interests | Spending time with family and friends, yoga, playing board games, reading, traveling and trying to keep my house clean!.

I strive to create an environment where you feel safe and valued, empowering you to participate in your care decisions and express any concerns without fear of judgment. I still remember being nervous when first visiting the OB-GYN as a teenager, and that experience has shaped my approach to patient care. | Why I entered medicine | I was always most interested in science classes, leading me to a career in medicine. My passion for OB-GYN is rooted in my commitment to improving women's health and advocating for their well-being at every stage of life. | Personal interests | I spend most of my free time with my husband and family – family means everything to me.

Philosophy of care | Finding a clinician you trust is important, especially in obstetrics and gynecology. My goal is for you to feel comfortable sharing your concerns with me and confident we will come up with a solution together. Women play many roles in their families and communities and often put their needs last. I want our office to be a place women can focus on their own health and well-being. I focus on each patient as a whole person, realizing multiple factors contribute to health. I am happy to collaborate with clinicians in other specialties to provide the best care for my patients. | Why I entered medicine | I entered medicine because I love science and understanding how the human body functions – and malfunctions. I enjoy staying up to date on the latest advancements in medical knowledge and technology. The most rewarding part of my job is seeing patients through momentous times in their lives, such as the birth of a child, as well as the most challenging times in their lives. I enjoy working with patients from adolescence through pregnancy to menopause, and everything else in between. | Community involvement | My husband and I grew up in the Lehigh Valley and surrounding areas. We met during medical school and then left the area for our residencies. We're so happy to be back in the area and helping patients from our hometowns. | Personal interests | I have two young boys who keep me very busy.

Philosophy of care | I consider myself a teacher as well as a doctor. I believe it’s critically important that women understand the “why” behind the health issues they face. Although the science can sometimes be complex, I always take time to explain in simple terms what is happening to their bodies and their treatment options. The more my patients know, the more actively they can participate in their own care. | Why I entered medicine | As a child I loved science. I also wanted to help people. And I had some personal medical issues that helped me understand what it’s like to be a patient. That’s why I always knew I would become a doctor. It seemed like the perfect combination of my interests and experience. It has been especially meaningful to be a gynecologist. I consider it a privilege to be a part of women’s lives and to be able to help them with complex medical and surgical issues. In many cases we discuss personal issues as well, and I’m honored my patients trust me with this aspect of their lives. | Personal interests | I want my patients to know I’m just like them. I am a wife, a mother of three teenaged daughters and a proud member of this community. I see my patients at the grocery store, the mall, at my children’s schools and at their sporting events. I’m at the same stage of life as my patients and face many of the same issues, both physical and personal. To relax and unwind, I enjoy spending time with family. We like to hike, bike and do other outdoor activities. Dr. Haas is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT).

Philosophy of care | Treating patients in a humanistic, compassionate way better equips me to manage their care. Getting to know you on a personal level and allowing you to get to know me builds a trust and respect that strengthens our relationship. It enhances care and outcomes and eliminates common barriers that exist in medicine. Speaking freely on OB-GYN issues as well as other aspects of your life promotes a better partnership to help me guide your medical care. | Why I entered medicine | As a young child, I had a sister born with an incurable genetic disease.
