Elite OB/GYN Expands Its Services to Florida Medical Center in

Lauderdale Lakes

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., April 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Lanalee Sam,

founder of Elite OB/GYN, celebrates her 10-year anniversary in East

Fort Lauderdale by opening a second branch at Florida Medical Center,

Lauderdale Lakes, FL. The West office, headed by Dr. Marielena Guerra,

expands the practice's philosophy, offering a 360-degree view of

women's health care and provides more convenient access off the

Florida Turnpike for patients who travel from across South Florida for

Elite OB/GYN services.

Dr. Guerra's specialty OB/GYN medicine is fostered in multi-cultural

experiences; born in Cuba, lived in Venezuela, raised and earned her

undergraduate degree in Miami, attended medical school in Dominica,

and completed her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology in Brooklyn

and Manhattan, NY and Jacksonville, FL. She follows Dr. Sam into

robotics surgery, providing less-invasive procedures, with minimal

scaring and rehabilitation time. "We treat our patients with utmost

care, respecting their time and needs, ensuring constantly that we

truly care about them," says Dr. Guerra, "As women treating women, we

empathize with their feelings and experiences and help them make

educated decisions about health and medical care -- for them and their

families."

Dr. Sam's philosophy is evident in the feminine, comfortable, pleasant

setting of her offices and in her personal treatment of each patient.

"My 'boutique' practice is the antithesis of what many women are

unfortunately used to -- waiting, feeling rushed, and receiving

impersonal, one-dimensional care," she states, "At Elite OB/GYN, we

cater to women's total needs, creating relationships during the most

miraculous time of their lives." Dr. Guerra and Dr. Sam share the

sentiment that respect for a woman's time, body and emotions evokes

trust and creates happy and empowered patients -- of any ethnic or

cultural background.

Dr. Guerra is attracted to the strong Hispanic culture in South

Florida, reaching out to the young women who can identify with her and

to their mothers who will feel secure, knowing they and their

daughters, who are entering a new phase of their life -- adolescence,

adulthood or motherhood -- are safe and protected. "There are some

different outlooks in our culture," explains Dr. Guerra who is

bilingual in Spanish and English, "Mothers are protective, we

understand, and we provide a level of care that coincides with that --

we are daughters too -- in a position to help mothers make transitions

as well!"

Elite OB/GYN West opens April 24 at 3001 NW 49th Avenue, Suite 202,

Lauderdale Lakes, with office hours by appointment Monday, Tuesday and

Thursday (surgeries are scheduled Wednesday mornings). For information

or appointments, call 954 776 4877.

Elite OB/GYN: Dr. Lanalee Sam started her practice in 2004, offering

alternatives to impersonal care for women. Her "Concierge" service

ensures patients delivering babies receive 24/7 care with deliveries

and surgeries through Broward Health facilities. Dr. Sam is also

Medical Director at Florida Medical Center, Women's Health from the

Heart.
