The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai proudly welcomes Dr.Maybank, a double-board certified physician in Pediatrics and Preventative Medicine/Public Health. She is currently an Assistant Commissioner at the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene. Her areas of expertise include preventive medicine, food and fitness, maternal and child health, cancer, HIV/AIDS, community health, and health inequities.



Dr. Maybank is a founding board member of the Artemis Medical Society, an international mentoring, networking, and advocacy organization of over 2,500 Black female physicians. In 2012, she co-founded “We Are Doc McStuffins,” a movement that was inspired by the Disney Junior character Doc McStuffins, a fictional young black girl that dreams of becoming a doctor.



Dr. Maybank has a bi-weekly column, Doctor’s Orders, on the website of EBONY magazine. The column was established for Dr.Maybank to share her health expertise with the African American community-at-large. Her other writings can be found on Huffington Post and On Call in the City. She has also shared her medical knowledge on MSNBC’S Melissa Harris-Perry Show, BET’S 106 & Park, HuffPost Live, Our World with Black Enterprise, FOX 5 NY Good Day Street Talk, and other outlets. She has been acknowledged for her work by the National Coalition of 100 Black Men, The Network Journal 40 Under 40, the Hip Hop Loves Foundation, and NV Magazine’s Movers and Shakers 2010, and others.
