"Philosophy of care | I sincerely value getting to know my patients and building a relationship based on mutual respect and trust. I want to become a partner as we work together to maintain your health. As a caregiver, I try to see the ""whole person"" and not just symptoms or medical diagnosis. I consider all aspects of your health and provide you and your family the best care possible. | Why I entered medicine | I was always interested in the human body and how it worked. I am extroverted and enjoy interacting with people and helping others, thus a call to practice medicine came naturally. I chose family medicine because I really enjoy taking care of entire families; seeing children, parents and grandparents. I love the variety of doing well visits, diabetes and hypertension management, mental health care, and procedures such as joint injections and IUDs – often all in one day! | Community involvement | I am new to both the Lehigh Valley and Pennsylvania, so I look forward to getting involved in the community here. Most of my previous community involvement was through church and ministry related activities. I am looking forward to learning about opportunities in the area and getting my spouse and three children involved as well. | Personal interests | I enjoy family time, cooking, reading, hiking, wine-tasting and horseback riding.".

I want you and your family to feel completely comfortable with the plan of care. Each patient's recovery to their fullest potential is my ultimate goal. | Why I entered medicine | For as long as I can remember, I wanted to become a doctor. After playing multiple sports in high school and then Division I college football, and suffering multiple injuries along the way, orthopedic surgery was a natural fit. | Community involvement | I have been a youth sports coach for football, soccer, baseball and basketball. I also volunteer for many community groups. | Personal interests | I am a sports fan at all levels: high school, college and professional.

Philosophy of care | I have been caring for patients over 25 years. The central theme of my care is treating you (and every patient) with the utmost respect. We will make decisions together and I will treat you as if you are a member of my own family. I will use my expertise to explain all the particulars of your diagnosis and treatment options so that you can best make informed decisions for yourself. | Why I entered medicine | I decided to pursue a career in medicine at age 13 when my 11-year-old brother was hospitalized with a severe spinal infection. I never waivered in that decision, and found as I went through the process that I thoroughly enjoy helping others, finding ways to solve their problems and being their advocate through medical issues. I enthusiastically enjoy every day doing this type of work. | Community involvement | Since I came to this area in 1995, I have dedicated a substantial portion of my time to the community. I have served leadership roles at the local hospitals for 23 of those 25 years, have always treated everyone regardless of ability to pay, taken care of athletes for many hours on the fields and contributed to numerous local charities. I was honored to be inducted into the Warren County (N.J.) Hall of Fame for my community service. | Personal interests | My main interests are my children. My daughter works for the National Academy of Medicine. She received her master’s degree in Global Health from Duke University. She and I have traveled all over the world and pursue outdoor activities such as helicopter skiing in the Canadian Rockies, hiking Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, bungee jumping and doing a safari in South Africa, ice glacier hiking in Norway, and bar hopping in Copenhagen. My son just got drafted by the Chicago White Sox as a pitcher and I support his endeavors spending many hours on the baseball diamond. Our family has a thirst for exploration, adventures and loving and supporting each other. | Image | Lehigh Valley Hospital is ranked 25th in the country for orthopedic care on the 2025-2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals list.

Philosophy of care | I think it’s fundamentally important that a solid relationship based on trust be created between myself and patients.  This is accomplished by working in a partnership with the patient to accomplish mutually defined health goals, by treating illnesses and diseases using strategies based on the best evidence, and by ensuring excellent bi-directional communication between myself and patients. | Why I entered medicine | After experiencing numerous injuries and illnesses while growing up, I became deeply familiar with the health care system from the perspective of the patient.  While this generated interest in the role physicians play from direct experience, it also created the desire to give back to others by helping to prevent illnesses and injuries, as well as to manage diseases that arise. | Community involvement | I have had ongoing sponsorship for disadvantaged kids who have suffered burn injuries to enable them to attend a special summer camp through the University of Michigan Burn Center. | Personal interests | I work to maintain my own well-being by spending time with my 20-year-love, Susan, my wonderful 4 kids, extended family and friends (as well as my huge dog, Bo, and multiple other furry and feathered friends).  Together we enjoy family movie nights, ice cream runs (not | every | night!), sporting events, and trips into NYC.  I might periodically also be spotted pounding the pavement on a run or getting muddy on a mountain bike. Dr. Cowell is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Sciatica. His top areas of expertise are Cellulitis, Peptic Ulcer, Necrosis, and Otitis.

Philosophy of care | I’m a primary care physician, so I treat the patient as a whole and address all needs, whether physical, mental or social. Specialists such as cardiologists may specifically treat the heart, or pulmonologists may treat the lungs. Primary care physicians treat the whole body from top to bottom. We identify the nature of the problem and address it or, if called for, are able to refer a patient for more specialized care. I enjoy what I do because I like to help patients and prevent diseases before they start. | Why I entered medicine | I wanted to help people and I like to interact face-to-face, so I always had a passion for medicine. It’s rewarding to help someone directly with my skills, mind and know-how, so to speak. And I like the long-term relationships that come with primary care. I treat people from ages 16 to 90 or even 100, and I get to know their families and kids. It’s very rewarding to take care of entire families. | Community involvement | I sing in a church choir and am involved in church life. I like to sing and enjoy music in general. | Personal interests | I enjoy skiing in winter and playing soccer in summer. I belong to a recreational soccer league of people above 40. We’ve been playing together for more than 12 years, mostly on weekends. For skiing, I like to go out West to the Rockies. I pick a different place each year, such as Big Sky, Montana, Snowmass, Colorado, Snowbird, Utah, and Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and go for a week at a time. Locally, I enjoy taking my kids to Blue Mountain and Camelback. Dr. Shevtziv is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Sciatica.

Philosophy of care | My philosophy of care is to treat you in a respectful and holistic manner, while providing education to help you navigate your own health. | Why I entered medicine | Although I knew I wanted to be a doctor from a young age, I truly fell in love with medicine when I saw the positive impact my family's doctors had on their lives, and the lives of their loved ones. Whether in the hospital or in the office, their warmth and compassion was a comfort and reassurance during tumultuous times. In those moments, I knew that I wanted to help people in the same way.

Philosophy of care | I was raised to treat others as I would like to be treated, and I try to bring that philosophy to every patient encounter. To do this, one must always have respect for the patient and be an outstanding listener. | Why I entered medicine | I have always had a passion for the biological sciences and I knew I wanted a career in that field -- specifically, research. But after working as a laboratory technician during college, I realized I missed human interaction. I was more interested in getting to know my co-workers than my test tubes. This was when I realized I could incorporate my love for science and people into becoming a physician. | Community involvement | During my family medicine residency, I volunteered annually at the first aid station of the American Cancer Society Relay for Life in Saucon Valley, Pa. | Personal interests | Above all, I enjoy spending time with my family.
