About The Practice

Aster OB/GYN is an independent practice that removes barriers to medical care. At our convenient location in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, we offer comprehensive reproductive health services. The team at Aster OB/GYN, including medical director Farris Fahmy, MD, FACOG, and Dr. Rachel Roesner, DO deliver obstetrical and gynecological services in a homelike setting, treating patients with love and respect.  We listen to our patients and our diverse team is committed to delivering high-quality care.  We create partnerships to achieve optimal health using the best treatments available to meet your individual needs. 

The state-of-the-art facility is a full-service OB/GYN office and offers both medical and surgical care for women, including fertility assessments, prenatal care, advanced ultrasound imaging, gynecological care, menopausal treatment, minimally invasive surgery, and major surgery. They also offer specialty services including urodynamics to evaluate for urinary incontinence, LEEP to test and treat cervical cancer, and Sono HSG to diagnose conditions that might affect fertility. The surgical center at Aster OB/GYN is accredited by the American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities, which is considered the gold standard for ambulatory surgical centers.

While the team at Aster OB/GYN believes in preventive care, the healthcare professionals understand that patients may require urgent care and offer same-day emergency appointments, including evening and weekend hours. Doctors are available for emergent and non-emergent matters seven days per week.

We believe that medical care should be high quality, affordable, financially sustainable, and available to patients without interfering with their work schedule. Access, convenience and trust is at the core of all we do and we serve the multicultural community. The practice has professional staff fluent in English, French, Arabic, and Spanish.

If you’re looking for comprehensive obstetrical and gynecological services, call Aster OB/GYN or book an appointment online.
