I had an appointment with Dr Fana on October 25. I was cancelled since she is no longer with the office or Northwell. I have been trying to locate her since. Can anyone help? She has been with me since my journey began with breast cancer and totally trust her.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
