Dr. Joy O. Friedman
Overview
I am grateful for the opportunity to contribute to the well-being of teens and young adults navigating the complexities of adolescence. With a focus on general adolescent medicine, my greatest interest is fostering a holistic approach to health care that factors in the emerging needs of teenagers as they become young adults. I specialize in addressing challenges related to eating disorders and sexual and reproductive health. Children are authentic, resilient and kind at heart. Adolescents share these traits and are ready to push the boundaries that adults take for granted to become the agents of change for a brighter future. Supporting adolescents through this time of transformation gives me energy and hope. My aim is to create a supportive and inclusive environment for adolescents to receive care as they gain independence in accessing health care. I value the trust placed in me by patients and families and recognize the importance of compassion and humility.

Nemours Children's Hospital, Delaware
I completed a residency in obstetrics and gynecology in which I primarily worked with adult patients, however I still felt connected to the younger women and adolescents that came to our clinic. As I was initially torn between pursuing a career in pediatrics or OB/GYN as a medical student, I found that the field of pediatric and adolescent gynecology allowed me to pursue both of these interests. And I love working with children and teens — they are resilient and full of energy, which is often contagious. I’m passionate about empowering girls and teens to make healthy choices through crucial moments in their youth by providing them with useful information to help in guiding those decisions.Outside of work, I am passionate about culinary experiences, travel and spending time with my family. I believe in treating my patients in a manner in which I would want my own family members to be treated. I try to be nice to everyone I meet, from coworkers to patients and their families. I also believe in providing comprehensive care for girls and teens — in a non-judgmental, friendly and confidential manner. Dr. Patel is highly rated in 9 conditions, according to our data. Her top areas of expertise are Painful Menstrual Periods, Pelvic Congestion Syndrome, Hydrocele, Menorrhagia, and Intrauterine Device Insertion.
