I have been an attending physician at Mass General hospital since 1993. Currently, I am the Division Director of Benign Gynecology and Obstetrics and the Associate Director of the third year clerkship director for Mass General at Harvard Medical School. I provide specialized gynecologic care for abnormal bleeding, fibroids and endometriosis, including up to date medical and surgical technologies such as endometrial ablation, hysteroscopic surgery and laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomy and myomectomy. I enjoy longstanding relationships with patients, and guide them through OB/GYN care through their life span. Within my practice at Mass General West I care for many women with advanced maternal age pregnancy. I also have expertise in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, perimenopause and the gynecologic care of breast cancer patients. In addition to teaching, I am interested in patient safety, teamwork training and simulation within the department. My primary focus however is personalized patient care within the outstanding OB/GYN department at Mass General .

I cannot compliment Dr. York-Best enough. She is PHENOMENAL. She immediately made me feel at ease and based the cadence of the visit off of my history and what I had asked/said at the beginning of the visit. She explained everything in an understandable way (but in a very patient and respectful tone of voice) and even repeated things if/when I ... Read More
[redacted] it was very disappointing - I left feeling dismissed and as though I wasn't believed
Good
Hi, I like her very much. She talks to make you understand what she's saying. She makes you feel comfortable with whatever decision you're going to make. And the most important thing, she listens. She listens to you. And I like her very much. She's a very nice doc. I would recommend her to anyone.
It was good. I thank you for all doctors. And [redacted] everything is alright for me. Thank you for all. Thank you.
Dr. Carey was very kind, she was very attentive to all my concerns, and apart from that she showed me a genuine desire to help with the health situation I am going through.

She was fantastic - listened to me carefully and explained things thoroughly.
I'm very impressed with Dr. York-Best. She took the time to answer questions and explain my case and the steps to take. She is not only very smart but gives a sense of trust and security that is not always there with a medical team.
