Dr. Watkins provides acute illness care for patients and families throughout New York, drawing on more than 20 years of experience recognized by the NCQA for patient-centered care.
Our sexual health services focus on prevention, screening, diagnosis, treatment, education, and wellness, delivered with discretion and respect.
Some STIs cause no symptoms, which is why routine screening can matter for people with certain risk factors. Treatment and prescriptions are provided when clinically appropriate following an evaluation.
PrEP can help reduce the risk of acquiring HIV for people who may be at increased risk. We provide consultation and evaluation, including a discussion of medication options and appropriate laboratory monitoring.
PEP may help prevent HIV after a potential exposure when started promptly. If you believe you have recently been exposed to HIV, seek medical evaluation as soon as possible — PEP is time-sensitive.
Our goal is to help patients make informed reproductive-health decisions based on their individual circumstances and preferences.
Women's sexual health can be affected by hormonal changes, infections, dermatologic conditions, pain, dryness, medications, and stress. We provide evaluation and management of conditions that may affect comfort and quality of life.
When a condition requires an in-person examination, laboratory testing, imaging, or specialist evaluation, patients are referred for appropriate in-person care. Treatment is individualized based on your health history, symptoms, and goals.
Men's sexual health includes physical, emotional, and reproductive well-being. We provide confidential evaluation for erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, ejaculatory concerns, and certain hormone-related concerns.
Erectile dysfunction can be associated with cardiovascular health, diabetes, medications, hormonal factors, or other conditions. Our approach begins with understanding your symptoms and history, and may include prescription medication, lifestyle recommendations, laboratory evaluation, or referral when additional assessment is needed.
Weight and metabolic health can influence sexual health, energy, mobility, and overall well-being. Our approach focuses on sustainable health improvements rather than weight alone.
Dr. Watkins reviews your health history, current medications, weight-management goals, BMI and relevant health factors, lifestyle considerations, and potential medical risks and benefits.
When clinically appropriate, prescription options may include FDA-approved GLP-1/GIP-based therapies such as Zepbound® or Wegovy®. Medication selection is individualized and depends on clinical eligibility, medical history, contraindications, and availability. Weight management is approached as part of comprehensive health, not a guarantee of improved sexual function.
Skin conditions affecting the genital or surrounding areas can interfere with comfort, hygiene, and intimacy. We evaluate and manage a range of dermatologic concerns.
When appropriate, self-collection can offer a more convenient and comfortable option for certain infection tests through participating laboratory services or other approved testing pathways. Self-collection does not replace a medical examination when one is clinically necessary. Please notify Dr. Watkins if you may be pregnant or have symptoms suggesting pelvic inflammatory disease, including pelvic pain, pain during intercourse, or unusual discharge or odor.
Consider testing if you notice unusual discharge, burning with urination, genital sores, pelvic discomfort, or if a partner has been diagnosed with or has symptoms of an STI. Many STIs cause no symptoms, so routine screening matters if you have risk factors, even without symptoms.
PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) is taken regularly to reduce the risk of acquiring HIV before a potential exposure. PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis) is started after a possible exposure and is time-sensitive, so evaluation should happen as soon as possible following a suspected exposure.
When clinically appropriate, Dr. Watkins may consider FDA-approved GLP-1/GIP-based medications after reviewing your health history, current medications, and goals. Medication selection is individualized and depends on eligibility, medical history, and contraindications identified during your evaluation.
Many perimenopause and menopause symptoms, such as hot flashes, mood changes, and sleep disruption, can be evaluated by telehealth. If your history, symptoms, or medication plan requires an examination or lab testing, Dr. Watkins will refer you for appropriate in-person care.
No. Self-collection can offer a convenient option for certain infection testing, but it does not replace an in-person examination when one is clinically necessary, such as with pelvic pain, unusual discharge and odor, or symptoms suggesting pelvic inflammatory disease.
