&nbsp;<a href="https://www.usafibroidcenters.com/our-founders/dr-yan-katsnelson/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Yan Katsnelson, M.D., founder and CEO of USA Fibroid Centers</a>, was honored with a Citation of Merit by<a href="https://bronxboropres.nyc.gov/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"> Bronx Borough President Vanessa L. Gibson</a> for his exceptional contributions to <a href="https://www.usafibroidcenters.com/uterine-fibroid-treatment/uterine-fibroid-embolization/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">uterine fibroid treatment </a>and fibroid awareness. The award was presented at “<a href="https://www.usafibroidcenters.com/blog/usa-fibroid-centers-cultivates-hope-at-a-night-in-full-bloom-fibroid-event/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">A Night in Full Bloom</a>,” a prominent fibroid awareness event sponsored partly by USA Fibroid Centers in New York City. 
The <a href="https://bronxboropres.nyc.gov/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Citation of Merit</a> recognizes individuals and organizations' significant contributions to the Bronx. Dr. Katsnelson was honored for his commitment to providing safe and effective fibroid treatment options and public education on fibroid disease. 
With <a href="https://www.usafibroidcenters.com/locations/new-york/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">seven conveniently located fibroid treatment centers</a> in the Bronx, USA, Fibroid Centers are committed to ensuring that women have local access to specialized fibroid care: 
<ul><li dir="ltr">5199 Broadway Ste. B, Bronx, NY, (929) 325-0449</li><li dir="ltr">11 E Fordham Rd Ste. B, Bronx, NY, (718) 513-5877</li><li dir="ltr">947 Southern Blvd Ste.

 USA Fibroid Centers is a major provider of <a href="https://www.usafibroidcenters.com/locations/new-york/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">fibroid care in the New York City</a> area and has 25 clinics in the five boroughs, two in upstate New York and one in Yonkers.
“When I first became Bronx Borough President in 2022, I visited USA Fibroid Centers and I met Dr. Katsnelson and we talked about fibroids,” said Gibson, who spoke at the event. “Little did I know the following year, fibroids would affect me.” 
Gibson’s experience underscores the importance of raising awareness and supporting those affected, a mission echoed throughout the event.
Hosted by Cynthia Bailey, star of Real Housewives of Atlanta, and celebrity make-up artist Kym Lee, the event also included a discussion panel with Dr. Katsnelson, fibroid ambassadors, and survivors.
USA Fibroid Centers specializes in minimally invasive treatment for fibroids, such as <a href="https://www.usafibroidcenters.com/uterine-fibroid-treatment/uterine-fibroid-embolization/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">uterine fibroid embolization</a> (UFE). Fibroids affect millions of women and disproportionately affect Black women, with 80% developing fibroids by age 50 compared to 70% of white women. 
“We’re here because millions of women suffer from fibroids that affect them physically, mentally, and socially,” said Dr. Katsnelson. “Too often, they agree to invasive surgeries they don’t need. We’re here so women can live their best lives without limitation.”
 
About USA Fibroid Centers
USA Fibroid Centers’ mission is to provide personalized, non-surgical treatment for fibroids using an advanced procedure called Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE) that preserves a woman’s uterus. USA Fibroid Centers strive to raise awareness of UFE as a treatment option and encourage more conversation about fibroids.
