Dr. Rifkin started Great Neck Obstetrics and Gynecology, P.C. in 1985, and with the addition of his outstanding partners, has built the practice into the most successful private practice on the North Shore of Long Island. Great Neck Ob/Gyn offers women comprehensive healthcare, providing compassionate Obstetric and Gynecology services, as well as Ultrasound, Amniocentesis, Sonohysterography, BRCA Testing, Bone Density, Urodynamics, Colposcopy, and Femilift Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation, all on site, in our warm and modern facility. All Obstetrical services, including prenatal visits, blood drawing, non stress testing, and ultrasound appointments are performed in our Great Neck office. Having full time ultrasound available in our office enables our patients to be able to immediately review with their physicians their obstetrical and gynecologic results, eliminating the need for separate appointments and waiting times.

Dr. Rifkin and his partners were pioneers in bringing advanced operative laparoscopy and hysteroscopy into North Shore University Hospital, performing the first Laparoscopic Assisted Vaginal Hysterectomy in North Shore in 1990. Dr. Rifkin has also been in the forefront of alternatives to hysterectomy, and most times is able to conserve pelvic anatomy with operative hysteroscopic procedures, as well as Endometrial Ablation.

Great Neck OB/GYN is proud to serve the women of Nassau, Queens, and Suffolk (and often even further) with state of the art care, and devotion to our patients. Our staff of 5 Obstetrician Gynecologists, a full time Radiologist, Physician Assistants and RN’s are available 24/7 to answer every question, and respond to all of our patient’s needs.
