Philosophy of care | I have learned that if you give the patient a chance, they will tell you what is wrong.

Philosophy of care | My partner and I treat people like family. We respond to questions immediately, and when we order tests, our philosophy is that we should call every patient with results ourselves. I make those calls every day before I go home for supper. That way patients can make the most informed decisions about their care. We work closely with colleagues at Lehigh Valley Hospital–Cedar Crest and are very happy to refer our patients to specialists in disciplines like infertility and gynecologic oncology. We make sure we abide by screening guidelines for tests such as bone density so we can refer our patients for appropriate treatment. | Why I entered medicine | I grew up in the Lehigh Valley, where a lot of family friends were physicians, and I was struck by how they took care of patients and had great concern for them. I wanted to help people get healthy and stay healthy, and was most interested in delivering babies. Even though I no longer practice obstetrics, I’ve been here since 1980s and have delivered about 3,000 babies for area families. People I’ve delivered often bring their own children back to see me, and that’s very rewarding. | Community involvement | I’ve been on an advisory board for the local Red Cross and contribute to that organization and the Salvation Army, which is a major provider for local poor and homeless people. Many of our homeless are veterans who served their country and are now sick. The Salvation Army takes care of a lot of them. I appreciate the work they’ve done for vets who have come on hard times. | Personal interests | Beyond spending time with my wife, who is a local bookkeeper, and our two college-age kids, I like outdoor activities like water sports, hiking, fishing and camping. I grew up that way – my parents always had us doing things outdoors. We usually do a beach trip to Cape May in the summer. When you work indoors all week, it’s nice to be out waterskiing or being in the natural environment. Dr. Yaswinski is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Neuralgia.

Philosophy of care | My philosophy is that the patient’s interests come first. I treat all patients the same regardless of anything. I grew up in Syria, where the care was good but could be a little neglected. I feel patients always need better care and you can always find something to improve. That really drives me in my practice of medicine. It’s very rewarding to see patients respond and know that they really feel better – to see smiles on their faces. That’s a goal in this field. | Why I entered medicine | A neighbor who was a doctor guided me when I was young, and I always felt he liked what he did. He talked to me about it and told me it was a really good job – because it wasn’t just a job. Medicine isn’t an occupation where you just go back to work every day, but something you have passion for that makes you feel good about yourself at the end of the day. That made me feel this is something I wanted to go for, and everything he said has turned out to be true. | Community involvement | I live in this community and have kids here, so I’m involved with a lot of things like being members of a church and Scouts. What I like about Scouting is that it’s good for both kids and the community. It helps make kids more mature, guides them, encourages them to make good decisions, makes them feel independent, teaches skills, and fosters respect for nature and people. It helps make them good, productive members of their community. | Personal interests | I enjoy sports, travel and music. I play a stringed instrument called the oud, which is similar to a guitar but wider in the back. I learned it as a child and brought the instrument with me when I came here from Syria. I mostly play for myself but sometimes play for people from our culture who know about it. Dr. Kayed is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Neuralgia. His top areas of expertise are Vaginal Cysts, Vaginal Dryness, Fetal Enterovirus Syndrome, Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), and Salpingo-Oophorectomy.

Philosophy of care | As a family physician, it’s important to develop relationships with patients. I see the full spectrum from early childhood, to adult, to end of life, and you need to take in the entire scope when caring for each patient. The family impacts each individual, and since I take care of the whole family, if the husband smokes, I can’t treat the wife without treating the husband! I take a holistic approach to getting everyone healthy. I like partnering with people and their families to establish healthy goals and lifestyles to prevent problems later on – and of course taking care of them if something does happen, establishing realistic expectations about problems and what treatments can accomplish. | Why I entered medicine | Ever since I was little, I wanted to go into medicine. It all boils down to helping people, and I felt medicine was the way I could do that. Entering medical school, I knew that I wanted to focus on Family Medicine and my experience doing medical rotations solidified my career path. I wanted to be the doctor who people saw for the holistic management of their well-being and I wanted to establish relationships with patients of all age groups. | Community involvement | I enjoy working with medical students from local universities as a mentor and teacher. I enjoy guiding future doctors and nurse practitioners with my personal style of medicine. | Personal interests | I love music and try to keep active and healthy. I also like to travel and cook. The Caribbean and Southeast Asia are two of my favorite regions to visit, but vineyard tours of Napa Valley and Bordeaux are on my to-do list! I’m of Ukrainian background and can understand and semi-fluently speak the language as well as a basic understanding of the Polish language.
