Jeffrey Bernstein, MD

As an obstetric anesthesiologist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to making a meaningful difference in the lives of my patients. My passion lies in assisting women during one of the most critical times of their lives, ensuring they remain pain-free and healthy throughout the birthing process. My commitment to patient care drives me to strive for technical perfection in every procedure.

My journey into medicine was inspired by a desire to make the world a better place. My educational background includes graduating with distinction in research from medical school, where I developed a strong foundation in cardiology. This, coupled with my ongoing commitment to research and patient care, has shaped my career and continues to drive my passion for excellence in my work.

My clinical interests include high-risk obstetric anesthesia, and I am proficient in a wide range of procedures. My extensive experience and research, particularly in platelet research, have significantly impacted the field of neuraxial anesthesia. I contributed to a study that received the prestigious Pitkin Award for the most impactful paper of the year in obstetrics.

Throughout my career, I have focused on proactive healthcare engagement, always listening to my patients’ needs and desires while keeping their safety at the forefront. This approach, coupled with a good sense of humor, helps to keep my patients relaxed and my concentration steadfast, allowing me to achieve the best anesthetic outcomes. My work reflects my dedication to quality patient care, and I am proud to be part of the team at NYU Langone, where we provide coordinated and seamless care.
