At Professional Gynecological Services we believe that patients may have a wide array of questions prior to having a termination of pregnancy. As medical providers our job is to facilitate answers to all those questions.

The following information has been designed to answer the most common questions that you may have. We invite you to read the information below carefully and want you to feel free to speak live with any of our trained medical assistants by calling 718.875.4848.

Abortion Facts

Most terminations of pregnancies are performed during the first trimester of the pregnancy. Therefore, the procedure becomes one of the safest outpatient procedures in the United States. It is eight times safer than a vaginal delivery. At Professional Gynecological Services, our complication rates are very low because of our qualified physicians and staff as well as the cleanliness and sterility throughout our office.

Each year, almost half of all pregnancies among American women are unintended. About half of these unplanned pregnancies, 1.3 million each year, are ended by abortion.

There are many myths and misconceptions about who gets abortions, and why. The fact is that the women who have abortions come from all racial, ethnic, socioeconomic and religious backgrounds.

  • MedTech ESG reporting is transitioning from compliance to strategic value creation
  • Increasingly MedTech leaders recognise ESG's role beyond compliance, focusing on sustainability and social responsibility
  • The significance of ESG criteria in healthcare procurement decisions is increasingly acknowledged
  • MedTech leaders are embracing circularity, energy efficiency, and waste reduction to differentiate their companies, capture market share and add value
 
The Shifting Landscape of ESG Reporting in the MedTech Industry
 
The MedTech industry is witnessing an evolution in its attitudes and practices regarding ESG reporting. ESG, short for environmental, social, and governance reporting, encompasses a set of standards defining criteria within these areas. These criteria serve as benchmarks for socially conscious individuals and stakeholders to evaluate the ethical stance of organisations. In their analysis, those engaging in investments are increasingly integrating these non-financial factors to assess both risks and growth prospects. Once considered primarily as a means of compliance, ESG reporting is now emerging as a strategic imperative for value creation and differentiation. This transformation reflects a broader societal shift towards sustainability, ethics, and responsible corporate behaviour. However, despite this momentum, the MedTech sector faces challenges and opportunities in fully integrating ESG considerations into its operations.
 
In this Commentary
 
This Commentary describes the evolving landscape of ESG reporting within the MedTech industry, highlighting its transformation from a compliance-driven activity to a strategic imperative for value creation and differentiation. We mention how increasing pressure from stakeholders and a broader societal shift towards sustainability have influenced this change in mindset, despite the sector's historical focus on regulatory compliance and product innovation. Through insights from recent surveys and industry analysis, we uncover the growing recognition of ESG's relevance among healthcare providers and the opportunities it presents for MedTech leaders to differentiate their enterprises. Additionally, we address the challenges faced by the industry in fully integrating ESG considerations into its operations, ranging from complex supply chains to regulatory constraints. Finally, we make some suggestions for enhancing the effectiveness of ESG reporting, emphasising the importance of standardisation, enhanced disclosure, and investor engagement. Through this exploration, we describe some actionable insights for MedTech leaders navigating the shifting landscape of ESG reporting to drive sustainable growth and long-term value creation.
 
Navigating the Evolving Landscape of ESG Reporting in MedTechs

Historically, the MedTech industry has lagged sectors like industrials and technology in prioritising ESG reporting. While these industries have long recognised the importance of sustainability and ethical business practices, MedTechs have traditionally focused more on regulatory compliance and product innovation. However, recent years have witnessed a significant change in this narrative.
 
Driven by increasing pressure from investors, customers, and regulatory bodies, the industry is now acknowledging the importance of addressing sustainability and social responsibility concerns. This shift in mindset is further driven by the realisation of the potential impact of MedTech products and operations on environmental and social issues. Despite progress, the industry grapples with challenges such as complex supply chains, regulatory constraints, and unique ethical dilemmas inherent in healthcare delivery.
 
A recent (2023) survey undertaken by Bain, a consulting firm, underscores the growing recognition of ESG's significance among healthcare providers. The findings reveal a widespread anticipation of an uptick in the importance of ESG criteria in procurement decisions over the next five years. Notably, while certain factors like corruption, transparency, and employee safety are already deemed essential, others such as diversity, equity, inclusion, and environmental sustainability are positioned to gain prominence.
 
In this rapidly changing ecosystem, MedTech companies have an opportunity to distinguish themselves by embracing ESG initiatives that deliver tangible value. Practices such as circularity [production and consumption, which involves sharing, reusing, and repairing existing materials and products], energy efficiency improvements, and waste reduction resonate strongly with customers across different regions. Moreover, the Bain research highlights a spectrum of ESG leadership among MedTech companies, suggesting room for differentiation and competitive advantage.
 
As ESG continues to increase in importance, industry leaders should consider adopting a proactive approach to value creation. This involves strategic decisions on meeting minimum requirements to mitigate risk while also investing in areas that exceed industry standards. By focusing on selected areas of ESG differentiation, companies can not only win over procurement leaders but also capture significant market share in the evolving environment of healthcare procurement.
 
ESG Reporting in MedTechs

For MedTechs, ESG reporting serves the purpose of ensuring socially responsible and sustainable operations while driving healthcare innovation. Environmental concerns involve minimising waste, energy consumption, and carbon emissions, as well as encouraging eco-friendly materials and sustainable packaging practices. Social considerations encompass labour practices, diversity and inclusion, community engagement, and the imperative of prioritising employee wellbeing while maintaining standards across supply chains. Governance pertains to internal policies, leadership structures, transparency, and accountability mechanisms, ensuring ethical behaviour and regulatory compliance. By integrating ESG principles, enterprises not only mitigate risks but also enhance their reputation, attract investors, and contribute positively to society and the environment while advancing healthcare innovation. ESG reporting is pivotal for MedTechs, showcasing accountability, transparency, and sustainability efforts. It enhances reputation and trust among stakeholders, aids in effective risk management, provides access to capital, drives innovation and competitive advantage, ensures regulatory compliance, and fosters shareholder engagement. Ultimately, ESG reporting aligns financial performance with positive social and environmental impacts, supporting MedTech's pursuit of sustainable growth and long-term value creation for all stakeholders.
 
Challenges in ESG Reporting

The absence of standardised frameworks and metrics hinders comparison of ESG performance among MedTech companies, making it difficult for stakeholders to assess sustainability and social responsibility accurately. Without clear standards and oversight, there is a risk of greenwashing where companies exaggerate or misrepresent their environmental or social initiatives to appear more responsible than they are, undermining the credibility of ESG reporting. Despite its increased emphasis, some MedTechs provide limited or selective information, particularly regarding social and governance practices, complicating stakeholders' ability to gauge a company's societal impact fully.
 
Implementing effective ESG reporting faces several challenges, including cost and complexity. It can be expensive and resource-intensive, particularly for smaller companies with limited budgets and capacity. It requires investment in data collection, analysis, and reporting systems, as well as specialised expertise to interpret and communicate ESG performance effectively. Furthermore, ESG ratings and assessments frequently involve subjectivity and depend on various methodologies and criteria, resulting in discrepancies and confusion among those involved. This absence of standardisation presents challenges for investors, consumers, and other interested parties in accurately comparing the ESG performance of various companies.
 
Furthermore, ESG reporting is largely unregulated, allowing companies to choose what and how they disclose information, leading to inconsistencies in reporting practices and undermining the credibility and reliability of ESG disclosures. Conflicts of interest, such as consulting relationships between rating agencies and the companies they evaluate, may influence ESG ratings and assessments, raising concerns about objectivity and independence. Data collection can be challenging, particularly for MedTechs with complex operations and supply chains, requiring robust data collection processes, verification mechanisms, and transparency in reporting practices.
 
Integrating ESG considerations into business strategy and decision-making entails alignment across various functions and levels of the organisation, which can be demanding, particularly if ESG goals clash with short-term financial objectives or if there is limited comprehension of the business case for sustainability. Effective ESG reporting also demands meaningful engagement with various parties, including investors, employees, customers, communities, and civil society organisations. However, practices related to engaging stakeholders may exhibit inconsistencies or inadequacies, resulting in gaps in understanding and addressing key ESG issues.
 
Tackling these challenges necessitates concerted efforts from companies, investors, regulators, and other interested parties to enhance transparency, standardisation, and accountability in ESG reporting practices. This might entail establishing industry-wide standards and guidelines, reinforcing regulatory oversight, improving data quality and verification processes, and promoting increased collaboration and engagement among involved parties.
 
Enhancing the Effectiveness of ESG Reporting

To enhance the effectiveness of ESG reporting and leverage it as a strategic tool for positive change and to add value, consider: (i) Fostering the development and adoption of standardised frameworks and reporting guidelines for ESG disclosure. Collaborate with industry associations, regulatory bodies, and standard-setting organisations to promote consistency and comparability in ESG reporting practices. Support initiatives aimed at harmonising its requirements across jurisdictions to streamline compliance and enable meaningful cross-border comparisons. (ii) Advocate for stronger regulatory mandates regarding ESG disclosure, including the mandatory reporting of material ESG risks, opportunities, and performance indicators. Encourage your company to provide detailed and transparent ESG disclosures, encompassing quantitative data, targets, and progress toward sustainability objectives. Promote the adoption of integrated reporting frameworks that merge financial and ESG information to offer a comprehensive view of your company's performance and value creation. (iii) Develop educational programmes and training initiatives to underscore the significance of ESG factors in decision-making, risk management, and the establishment of long-term strategic value. Cultivate productive dialogue and interaction between your company and interested parties on ESG matters, encouraging avenues for shareholder resolutions, proxy voting, and direct engagement with board members and management. Advocate the integration of ESG considerations into investment processes, asset allocation strategies, and stewardship activities, including the integration of ESG criteria into investment policies and portfolio construction.
 
By implementing these recommendations, stakeholders can collaborate to bolster ESG reporting practices, enhance transparency and accountability, and foster sustainable business approaches that deliver enduring value for investors, companies, and society at large.
 
Takeaways

The MedTech industry is experiencing a shift in its approach to ESG reporting, moving beyond compliance to embrace it as a strategic tool for value creation and differentiation. This transformation reflects a broader societal trend towards sustainability, ethics, and responsible corporate behaviour. While historically lagging other sectors in prioritising ESG reporting, recent years have seen MedTech companies recognising the significance of sustainability and social responsibility, driven by pressure from investors, customers, and regulators. Despite facing unique challenges such as complex supply chains and regulatory constraints, the industry is increasingly acknowledging the potential impact of its products and operations on environmental and social issues. The growing recognition of ESG's relevance, as evidenced by surveys indicating its increasing importance in procurement decisions, underscores the need for companies to embrace ESG initiatives that deliver tangible value. By focusing on areas such as circularity, energy efficiency, and waste reduction, MedTechs can differentiate themselves in the market and gain a competitive advantage. Furthermore, there are opportunities for leaders in the field to proactively invest in surpassing prevailing standards, thus seizing market share, and fostering sustained value creation in the evolving landscape of healthcare procurement. As ESG continues to rise in importance, embracing these principles will not only enhance the reputation and sustainability of MedTech companies but also contribute to positive societal and environmental outcomes.

Endometrial Polyp is out-pocket of tissue that sticks out of the innermost lining of the uterus. They are often seen in women in their 40s and 50s. The inner-most lining of the uterus is known as the endometrium, hence the name endometrial polyps (Read also: Endometrial Ablation). These polyps are also referred to as uterine polyps and are made up of fibrous tissue and blood vessels from the endometrium. Endometrial polyps tend to come in different sizes, and may measure just a few millimeters or more than a few centimeters in size.

Polyps in the Uterus
Banner Endometrial PolypThe polyps are of two types, pedunculated and sessile. While the former have a pedicle or stalk that fixes them to the uterine wall, the latter are flat based. Pedunculated polyps tend to occur more often than the sessile polyps. The peduculated endometrial polyps often jut out through the cervix and into the vagina due to their longer shape. The color of the polyps is red or brown like the endometrium, but they may also appear dark red especially if large.

Some women may have a single endometrial polyp, while others may have multiple polyps in the uterus. Nearly 10% of women are estimated to have endometrial polyps in the uterus. Additionally, polyps are the primary cause of irregular vaginal bleeding in 25% of the women experiencing this symptom. Though most uterine polyps are benign or non-cancerous in nature, around 0.5% are cancerous. Hence, they do have a possibility of turning into cancerous growths and need to be investigated thoroughly.

GARDASIL is the only human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine that helps protect against 4 types of HPV. In girls and young women ages 9 to 26, GARDASIL helps protect against 2 types of HPV that cause about 75% of cervical cancer cases, and 2 more types that cause 90% of genital warts cases. In boys and young men ages 9 to 26, GARDASIL helps protect against 90% of genital warts cases.

GARDASIL also helps protect girls and young women ages 9 to 26 against 70% of vaginal cancer cases and up to 50% of vulvar cancer cases.

GARDASIL may not fully protect everyone, nor will it protect against diseases caused by other HPV types or against diseases not caused by HPV. GARDASIL does not prevent all types of cervical cancer, so it’s important for women to continue routine cervical cancer screenings. GARDASIL does not treat cancer or genital warts. GARDASIL is given as 3 injections over 6 months.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Anyone who is allergic to the ingredients of GARDASIL, including those severely allergic to yeast, should not receive the vaccine. GARDASIL is not for women who are pregnant.

The side effects include pain, swelling, itching, bruising, and redness at the injection site, headache, fever, nausea, dizziness, vomiting, and fainting. Fainting can happen after getting GARDASIL. Sometimes people who faint can fall and hurt themselves. For this reason, your health care professional may ask you to sit or lie down for 15 minutes after you get GARDASIL. Some people who faint might shake or become stiff. This may require evaluation or treatment by your health care professional.

Only a doctor or health care professional can decide if GARDASIL is right for you or your child.

Orthodontic treatment at a family dentist in Brooklyn translates into a smile makeover that complements the healthy oral base it’s built upon. While orthodontics is often associated with straightening children’s teeth, adult orthodontics is becoming just as popular.

When you have a family dental team that practices general dentistry and is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, you can get all your dental needs for your entire family taken care of in one place. You have a Brooklyn family dentist who provides exceptional customer service in a family environment. He ensures your comfort, your best oral health, and the most radiant smile possible!

Orthodontic Basics
The practice of orthodontics primarily deals with diagnosing, preventing, and treating facial and dental irregularities. Children and adult orthodontics treat malocclusions, the technical term for irregular or uneven bite.

Orthodontic treatment usually consists of straightening teeth using a variety of different appliances to correct an underbite or overbite. Achieving facial balance is optimal for your appearance and your health as you’ll be able to chew more effectively and speak more clearly. While our orthodontist team does not provide our patients with traditional appliances such as metal braces, we offer our patients the newer classes of clear braces, such as Invisalign.

Laser technology has made a lasting impact across several medical disciplines. The dental industry is no exception. Since 1994, lasers have been employed for treatments in the field of dentistry. Gum surgery is a condition that has responded especially well to treatment with lasers.

This is still, however, relatively new technology. And while it’s been FDA-approved for years, not all dentists have incorporated laser procedures into their practice. Fortunately, the best dentist in Brooklyn at the Quentin Smile Dental Practice has invested in the equipment. Both father and son dentists are fully trained and highly experienced with laser gum surgery.

Why You May Need Gum Surgery

Gum surgery is often the end result of untreated periodontal disease. Periodontal disease is often referred to, in fact, as gum disease. It’s an infection of the bone and supporting tissues that hold your teeth securely in their position. And while gum disease mostly affects adults over the age of 40, it can and does affect younger people with poor dental hygiene as early as in their 20s.

Gum disease typically occurs due to:

Poor oral health and dental hygiene
Smoking
Diabetes or certain other chronic illnesses
Some medications
Genetic predisposition
