Meet Wagdy Girgis, M.D

Empowering Health Through Expert Care

More than 30 years ago, Dr. Wagdy Girgis opened a small community practice rooted in compassion, trust, and long-term relationships. His warm bedside manner and dedication to preventive care quickly made him a cornerstone of the neighborhood, caring for generations of families across New York City. His leadership as Director of Wound Care at Maimonides Hospital further strengthened the depth and quality of care he brought to his patients.

Multi generational Practice

As the practice grew, so did its mission. In recent years, FamilyFirst Medical proudly became a multigenerational practice with the addition of Dr. Michael Girgis, Dr. Wagdy’s son. After earning his MD from Penn State University College of Medicine, Dr. Michael returned home with a passion for integrating technology, lifestyle medicine, and innovative approaches into patient care. His clinical interests—mental health, adolescent medicine, and sports medicine for young athletes—bring a fresh and modern complement to the practice’s foundation. Together, the father-and-son team blends decades of trusted experience with a forward-thinking approach to family medicine.

Same Day Visits Testing and Ultrasound in Two Clinics

At Family First Medical we believe in providing the most advanced and convenient care possible, which is why we proudly offer on-site ultrasound scanning—a service many primary clinics do not have. This technology allows for detailed, immediate imaging to support accurate diagnoses and treatment planning, all within the comfort of our clinic. Choosing to have your ultrasound performed here means avoiding referrals to outside imaging centers, saving you valuable time and streamlining your care. Our integrated approach ensures that your primary care health assessments are thorough, efficient, and seamlessly coordinated, embodying our commitment to comprehensive, family-first care under one roof.

      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Michael Girgis was very highly recommended, and is exactly what I was looking for in a doctor. He takes the time to listen to me, he explains things to me in a way that I can clearly understand, and he always makes me comfortable. But more than anything else, he genuinely cares.

He constantly provides excellent care, taking the time to truly address my concerns and treatment options. The Apple does not fall far from the tree as his son Dr. Michael Girgis is AMAZING. I’m so impressed with his outstanding care, compassion, and going out of his way to make patients comfortable. Words cannot describe how dedicated is his front desk is, Teriza Abid. She is on top of everything, getting all the medical records ready when needed, always quick to answer all my questions. She goes out of her way to help every patient. Nany the office manager is always so helpful and always has a beautiful smile. Thank you so much for the difference you make in the lives of your patients! Your kindness, sincere caring, and concern make everything better.
