Philosophy of care | I will listen and always be empathetic and treat you as I would treat my family. | Why I entered medicine | It may sound cliché, but medicine was an inclination I had held onto since I was a child. My internal drive to care for others and my love of science set me on this path. All that, coupled with the desire to be the first physician in my family, my intense motivations have carried me through for all these years. | Initially, my interest was with pediatrics, until my third year clinicals in which the specialty of OB-GYN enticed me. This was the only field I felt, and still feel, gave me a continuous sense of satisfaction for the past 20 years. | Community involvement | I am a member of St Jane’s church in Easton. | Personal interests | I enjoy traveling, gardening and reading fiction.

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 highly rated in 10 conditions, according to our data.

Philosophy of care | I treat everybody with respect and for specific medical needs, regardless of ability to pay. You get my complete and undivided attention, unrushed. I will treat you as I would a family member. | Why I entered medicine | I always wanted to help people and I thought that I could contribute. I no longer do obstetrics but I have helped deliver thousands of babies. I remember a husband and wife; I had delivered both of them years earlier. And then I delivered their baby. So it has been quite rewarding for me over the years and still is. | Community involvement | I have participated in lectures and community get-togethers. We’ve done breast self-examination and contraception sessions and educated people on GYN surgery. We've always done a lot of care for underserved individuals including through clinics in Easton and Phillipsburg. | Personal interests | I am a computer game fanatic. I’ve played tennis through the years. I do bicycle riding and now I enjoy playing with my new grandson. I am proud of all four of my children and my wife of 37 years.
