Dr. Pavel Groysman is board-certified in hospice and palliative medicine, internal medicine and geriatrics. He is an assistant professor at the Donald and Barbara Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell.During his childhood in Ukraine, dressed in an oversized white coat with a stethoscope around his neck, Dr. Groysman would often accompany his grandmother, a gynecologist, during her hospital rounds."I knew I was going to be a doctor since the age of two," says Dr. Groysman. However, as a new immigrant to the United States, he discovered a faster route toward patient care and first became a physician assistant (PA).Dr. Groysman's insatiable interest in medicine led him to graduate from New York College of Osteopathic Medicine, followed by residency and fellowship at NYU Langone Hospital-Long Island (formerly Winthrop) and another fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center."As a PA and during my medical training, I noticed that while clinicians treat the diseases, symptoms and suffering remain unattended," he says. "After brief soul searching, I focused on palliative medicine so I could provide symptomatic and psychosocial support. I practice supportive oncology and stand with my patients at every point in their treatment trajectory."In 2018, Dr. Groysman joined Queens Medical Associates, which became part of Northwell Health in 2020. The practice provides cutting-edge oncology and hematology care for a culturally diverse population in Queens.Dr. Groysman believes that multidisciplinary and inter-institutional collaboration combined with deep awareness of cultural nuances lead to more personalized and successful patient care."There is nothing more important than a team approach," he says. "The access to health care resources that Northwell provides to patients is invaluable. All of us across the continuum work harmoniously to make sure patients feel seen and heard; and most of all, get the care they need."
