St. Luke's Family Medicine Nazareth
My practice is dedicated to treating patients of all ages and I have a special interest in womens’s care. My focus is getting to know my patients and their families and to help them get the most out of life. Together, we can optimize health with as few medications as possible through open communication and teamwork.
Professionally, I am a board-certified family physician at St. Luke’s University Health Network. I focus on staying up-to-date with the latest medical practices and I enjoy finding ways to improve the care I provide.
I earned my medical degree at St. George’s University School of Medicine and completed my residency at St. Luke’s University Health Network.
Originally from New Jersey, I have enjoyed settling into the Lehigh Valley area and the access to outdoor activities. Whether playing tennis, hiking or skiing, I try to stay active. I also enjoy reading, spending time with friends and family and traveling.

“I have been so honored and grateful to have a provider like Dr. Black caring for me! She has been hands down the best experience I have ever had in my adult life with my healthcare. She truly takes the time to listen, get to know you deeply as a person, ensure you feel comfortable with her! She is incredibly brilliant in her work and often takes the extra time to collaborate and get creative to find the answers for her patients. I think what sets her apart is her ability to be relatable and honest in her work. She has no problem owning when she may not know the answer to something but works to find it out and deepen her understanding as well as providing the best care possible at every level. I have never experienced such phenomenal and personable care like I have with her. I could never see or trust anyone else with my life and healthcare like I can with Dr. Black. St. Luke's should be incredibly proud to have such a phenomenal physician in their network as Dr.Black, she is a pillar for what every primary care physician should strive to be.”
