According to the announcement from NYWA, “it is proud to honor Dr. Tuvia, who, as you know, is committed to women’s health and opened Madison Avenue Women’s Imaging in order to give women the best possible care, emphasizing that early detection through screening is the key tool in the battle against cancer.”
