Buffalo Spree’s list of Western New York’s

2019 TOP DOCTORS Buffalo Spree’s 2019 Top Doctors list is researched, rigorously screened, and provided by PRS / Professional Research Services, a nationally known research company based in Troy, Michigan.

The professionals listed herein were selected solely by their peers in a survey conducted

by Professional Research Services. The professionals in this list include MDs and DOs only and were all screened and selected through the verification of licensing and review of any infractions through various applicable boards, and agencies. ( For further information on this screening, visit prscom.com or email PRS at spinkhasova@hour-media.com) PRS’s research for the Top Doctors list is based on an online peer-review survey sent out to certified doctors within Erie and Niagara Counties. The doctors were contacted by letter, postcard, and/or email, asking them to log onto the PRS voting site and cast their votes.

Hundreds of responses were received. Each doctor was able to log on to the site and vote for doctors within the seventy-four specialties included. Inclusion in Buffalo Spree magazine’s Top Doctors is based solely upon peer-selection.

The doctors with the highest number of votes within each of the specialties were then fact-checked further with the state of New York, as well as with their individual practices. The final list is then published as you see it in the following pages.

ERMELINDA BONACCIO, MD Community, family, and care

BY JANA EISENBERG

As a child, Ermelinda Bonaccio always knew she wanted to be a doctor. She wasn’t sure how she knew, and neither did her Italian-born parents, but it became clearer when her affinity for math and sciences emerged and her love of being with people became apparent.

A deep gratitude and awareness of her parents’ sacrifices and challenges informs much of Bonaccio’s philosophy. “My parents lived in Italy during World War II—neither of them went beyond an eighth-grade education,” she says. “But they were able to give me and my sister, as first-generation Americans, so much.” All of Bonaccio’s degrees—BA, MA, and MD—are from Harvard.

Bonaccio is now clinical chief of the Breast Imaging Section in Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center’s Department of Diagnostic Radiology and clinical assistant professor of radiology at UB Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.

At first, she wanted to be a pediatrician, but found that she preferred surgery and radiology. Then, through happenstance, she ended up doing a breast imaging internship, which is uncommon for young doctors.

“I was at Sloan Kettering for my fellowship,” explains Bonaccio. “This specialty combines my interests in interventions and technology with working with people.

Many people think of radiologists in a dark room, reading CT scans and reporting to primary care doctors. But during this time, I started having more interaction with patients.”

Helping save lives is a huge factor in her ongoing passion.

“Mammography is the only test that data shows lowers people’s risk of dying,” she says. “The breast cancer mortality rate has decreased by thirty percent, in large part due to early detection. Most women diagnosed with breast cancer now do survive, but hearing that you have cancer is still life changing.”

“When someone gets screened, it’s important to have a breast imaging expert who can define if cancer is there

and how much there is, then help the patient with next steps,” adds Bonaccio. “I’m so proud to be on Roswell’s multidisciplinary team; surgeons, oncologists, and radiation doctors work together.”

Her focus on early detection and screening finds her engaging beyond Roswell’s patients. “Roswell’s expanded Breast Cancer Care Center opened in May of 2016, and now we’re able to offer community mammogram screenings.

Building that program is very important to me and the hospital,” she says. Bonaccio and her team partner with Esperanza y Vida and the Witness Project, education and outreach programs designed to connect with Latin and African-American communities.

Taking care of herself is as important as taking care of others, says Bonaccio. With two sons recently out of the house, she and her husband are officially empty-nesters; her husband, Keith Frome, is a CEO and cofounder of the Washington, DC-based nonprofit PeerForward. Through the years, he has been supportive of her work, and, regarding parenting duties, she notes, “Finding a work-life balance is unique for each woman, each family. When you’re a working mother, it can be chaotic at home. We made travel part of our family life; during trips, you can really focus on family.”

Everywhere she goes, from the sidelines of her kids’ soccer games to her workplace, she educates and reminds women to take care of themselves. “Women are often caretakers for others,” she says. “There can also be confusion around the guidelines for when to get screened.” Based on data analysis, she feels strongly that women at average risk should start annual screenings at forty.

Bonaccio continues to be a “cup half full” kind of person.

“What I do every day—my work, taking care of patients— makes me hopeful,” she says. “Family—seeing my two boys grow into the next stages of their lives—makes me hopeful.

Being part of a team makes me so very hopeful.”

DILARA SAMADI, MD Making a difference in women’s lives

BY JANA EISENBERG

A thread that runs through Dilara Samadi’s life and training is a commitment to caring for others. As she grew up in rural St. Mary’s County, Maryland, outside of Baltimore, she watched her dad, a general surgeon, care for his patients, so it seemed a “natural progression” for her. She ended up attending Randolph College, a women’s college, where her interest in helping women increased.

Throughout the rest of her medical education, she focused on obstetrics and gynecology as an area where she could both perform surgery, which she loved, and also be a part of women’s pregnancies and childbirth. (Buffalo Medical Group, where she’s been since 1997, lists her areas of interest as high-risk pregnancies, laparoscopic surgery and menopause, robotic surgery, and vaginal surgery.)

“I love making a difference in people’s lives,” she says.

“Performing surgery can improve patients’ quality of life, take away their pain. And I work to make the delivery of their children the best experience it can be. Children are our legacy that we leave to this world. We need good parents to give us good children.”

Reflecting on the changes in her chosen field, Samadi notes that she is glad she both treats women and is also business partners with them. “Growing up, medicine was an art; I often think that choosing to go into medicine is a lifestyle, not just a career,” she says. “Some of ‘the art’ of medicine has changed—it’s become more of a business. The public is also more educated, they can look things up on the internet. Buffalo Medical Group has evolved as medicine has evolved. And women can add more of a personal touch. I love what I do, and I feel fortunate to work with the women who are my partners.”

When she came to do her residency in Buffalo, she never expected to end up living here. “Buffalo’s been a great, safe place to raise kids,”says Samari, whose family lives in

Clarence. “I’m glad the community embraced us. My home is a place of universal acceptance.

“Buffalo does have a lot to offer; I wish more people would realize that. With the new medical school, and all the other improvements going on, I encourage others to come here.”

It is important to her that as a doctor, she listens.

“Everyone has different needs—listening to patients helps them feel like somebody is invested,” she says. “Especially as a woman, you spend a lot of time catering to others; you’re not often asked what’s important to you.”

This applies to herself as well, between having raised her kids and caring for her and her husband’s aging parents, Samadi said that her life-work balance can be challenging.

“Like many women, there can be a struggle to make time for self-care. I make jam to give as gifts, and do some gardening,” she shares. “I feel medicine is a calling, and maybe that’s why it extends beyond patients. I was meant to take care of people.

“I enjoy going to church and have a limited social life, otherwise. I rely on my practice partners for strength and do the best I can,” she adds. “My ninety-one-year-old mother lives with us, and I am fortunate that my brother helps care for her and that my husband is gracious in allowing her to stay with us. I feel like my ‘relaxation’ will come later, when my kids are parents.”

As a mother, as a woman, as a doctor, she has hopes that the future means young people and more women finding their voices and expressing themselves, getting involved.

“I’m hopeful that women are becoming more of a fighting force,” she says. “And it’s our duty to teach the boys we’re raising—our young men—that they are true partners with women.”
