Personalized, patient-centered care from trusted physicians
Dr. Regina Janicik, Dr. Ora Pearlstein, and Dr. Claire Binsol are working with Castle Connolly Private Health Partners to deliver unrivaled healthcare experiences within a membership model.
Welcome to our Concierge Program
Collaborating with Castle Connolly Private Health Partners (CCPHP) has allowed us to create a more optimized healthcare experience for you. The Membership-based or “concierge” model we practice gives us more time to build the strong doctor-patient relationships that are essential to helping you achieve optimal wellness.
The structure of our Membership Program is designed with one simple focus: you.
DR. ORA PEARLSTEIN
Dr. Ora Pearlstein’s interest in medicine began with a love of biology while completing her Bachelor of Arts at Barnard College in New York, graduating Magna Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa and receiving the Constance Von Wahl Award for Excellence in Biology. Dr. Pearlstein graduated from The University of Maryland School of Medicine in 1995, where she was elected to the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. She completed her internship and residency in internal medicine at Beth Israel Hospital in Boston, a hospital of Harvard Medical School, and became board certified in Internal Medicine in 1998.
After completing her residency, Dr. Pearlstein joined the faculty at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University where she was an Assistant Clinical Professor of Medicine and served as the course director of the Introduction to Clinical Practice course for medical students. Dr. Pearlstein also worked as a clinician and educator at Long Island College Hospital, before joining Downtown Primary Care and the faculty at New York University Langone Medical Center, as an Assistant Clinical Professor in Internal Medicine.
As a concierge physician, Dr. Pearlstein enjoys being able to focus on patient-centered care and promoting wellness and a healthy lifestyle.

primary care at the former St. Vincent’s Hospital in Manhattan through New York Medical College. There, she was named Primary Care Chief Resident in 2010.
In her daily practice, Dr. Binsol’s focus is on creating and maintaining strong relationships with each individual patient. She provides proactive and preventive medical care and supports her patients in leading healthy lifestyles in both mind and body. Her skills as a physician, passion
and knowledge of primary care, and her caring and empathetic nature allow her to provide the high-quality, personalized care that her patients need and deserve.
