Another OB/GYN Coming to BRMC

Bradford Regional Medical Center (BRMC) is continuing to expand women’s healthcare by adding an obstetrician/gynecologist to its medical staff.

Starting Feb. 1, Alexander Batchev, D.O., will be accepting patients at his office, located in Suite 32 of BRMC’s Outpatient Services Center.

Dr. Batchev is board-certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology by the American Board of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and also Family Practice by the American Board of Family Practice.

“We’re thrilled to announce Dr. Batchev has joined our medical staff, enabling the hospital to expand its healthcare services for women throughout the region,” said Rhonda Chilson, BRMC’s Director of Practice Management.

Before coming to BRMC, Dr. Batchev had a practice in Trenton, Mich., for medical and surgical care of women since 2000. Prior to that, he was an attending physician in the OB/GYN Department of Oakwood Southshore Medical Center in Dearborn, Mich., from 1997-99. He also served as Vice Chairman of the OB/GYN Department at Oakwood Southshore Medical Center.

From 2005 to now, Dr. Batchev served on both the Credentials Committee and the Bylaws Committee at Henry Ford Wyandotte Hospital in Wyandotte, Mich.

After graduating in 1990 from the New York College of Osteopathic Medicine in Old Westbury, N.Y., Dr. Batchev completed his residencies at Sisters of Charity Hospital in Buffalo and Richland Memorial Hospital in Columbia, S.C.

“Dr. Batchev’s wealth of experience and credentials are what impressed BRMC. He will clearly have a great impact on women’s healthcare,” Mrs. Chilson said.

Additionally, he has a juris doctorate in 2003 from Wayne State University Law School and is licensed to practice law in Michigan and before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.
