Nothing helps our doctors connect with the patients at Weill Cornell Medicine better than their own personal medical experiences. For Dr. Jaclyn Bonder—Assistant Professor of Rehabilitation Medicine—creating lasting doctor/patient relationships with her female patients is strengthened by her special insight into the complications that can arise during pregnancy. After undergoing fertility treatments, Dr. Bonder suffered complications that required surgery. When her son was born early at only 33 weeks, she was able to experience first-hand just how important the bond is between doctors, nurses and patients. Now, as she works with her female patients who live with musculoskeletal conditions, she can better relate to their unique pains, frustrations and daily obstacles. At Weill Cornell Medicine, Dr. Bonder has been able to flourish as she pursues her passion for working with women. Her level of caring, compassion and understanding for the special needs of her female patients is unparalleled and just one of the many reasons why she is such a valuable member of our team.

Analise Scarpaci has always loved performing, and from the young age of 10-years-old, she dreamed of singing and dancing on Broadway. Even after being diagnosed with a form of Inflammatory Bowel Disease known as Crohn’s disease, she decided that nothing was going to stand in the way of her dreams. The rush of joy and excitement that she felt while on stage was something she simply couldn’t live without. After receiving the highest-quality medical care at Weill Cornell Medicine and New York-Presbyterian Hospital, Analise learned that managing her disease while pursuing her dreams of Broadway stardom was possible. With the help of her doctors, including Dr. Robbyn Sockolow, Professor of Clinical Pediatrics, Analise and her family were able to determine that biological therapy would be the best treatment option for her lifestyle. Now, at the age of 18, Analise is not only going after her dreams while living with Crohn’s disease but she also helps the country’s leading researchers to better understand the many genetic and immunological underpinnings of Inflammatory Bowel Disease or IBD.
