About Paul B. Sytman
The practice of medicine is truly a labor of love and an awesome responsibility and privilege. I work with each of my patients to identify their unique strengths and challenges. Then, working together as partners, we formulate an individual plan to maintain and improve their health. I am interested in the screening and treatment for common health issues including high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, anxiety, depression and other conditions. I am also passionate about the assessment of risk for heart disease, stroke and cancer. Geriatric care is also something I am interested in.
