About

Background

Board certified in internal medicine and headache medicine, Dr. McGowan has been providing collaborative care to patients for over 10 years. A graduate of Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, Dr. McGowan completed her residency at St. Luke’s University Hospital and Health Network in Bethlehem, PA before returning home to Western New York.

Dr. McGowan treats chronic health conditions such as Diabetes, HTN, hyperlipidemia, thyroid disease, migraines, and headaches; as well as acute conditions, including URI, Sinusitis, UTI, and a wide variety of other chronic and acute health conditions.

Care Philosophy

Dr. McGowan is passionate about making an impact on a patient’s health and well-being, building relationships over the course of a patient’s lifetime, and delivering preventive care. She believes that effective communication plays a vital role in the quality and care experience, and in overall health outcomes. She helps her patients understand their treatment plans through collaborative education. In each interaction, Dr. McGowan listens to, and reflects on, what patients tell her. “If I can help my patients feel heard and understood, then I am one step closer to cultivating a true partnership in their care.”
