Emily Flagler, M.D., recently joined the Genesis OB/GYN Group. She specializes in obstetrics and gynecology.

“I chose obstetrics and gynecology,” said Dr. Flagler, “because it gives me an opportunity to build long-term relationships with women from when they are young adults through pregnancy and into maturity.” She believes long-term connections will allow her to create treatment plans based on each patient’s goals and values. It also gives her the platform to advocate for women in every stage of their care.

Dr. Flagler was raised in a small town, and knew she wanted to return to one to practice medicine. She treasures the small-town atmosphere of Zanesville and the opportunity to connect with the community in and outside of work.

Dr. Flagler, her husband and her Labrador mix, Dani, are settling in nicely. They like to hike and spend as much time as they can outside.

Dr. Flagler’s office is with the Genesis OB/GYN Group at 945 Bethesda Drive, Suite 330, in Zanesville. Her phone number is 740-454-8800. She is accepting new patients.

Eric Antonucci, M.D., is the newest surgeon to join the Genesis ENT (Ear, Nose and Throat) Group. He performs medical and surgical treatments for head and neck diseases, ear tube placement (pediatric and adult), adenoidectomies, tonsillectomies and many other ear, nose and throat conditions.

“There were multiple reasons I chose to specialize in ENT,” said Dr. Antonucci. “I appreciate the direct and usually immediate cause-and-effect relationship that surgery has for patients. Once we perform a procedure, they feel better. I also enjoy the variety of the ENT field. Some problems can be solved with medicine, while at other times, surgery is the best option.”

Dr. Antonucci said he chose to work at Genesis because he can share medical care decisions with patients to decide the best course of care for them. He also appreciates working with a team of experienced doctors who provide consultation on treatment options. In addition, he likes the community feel at Genesis while being close to Central Ohio.

“The best thing about what I do,” said Dr. Antonucci, “is having patients come to appointments after treatment and tell me how much better they feel. I am grateful that I can help improve someone’s life.”

Dr. Antonucci and his wife prefer outdoor activities, like hiking and camping. This past summer, they hiked rim to rim at the Grand Canyon. They have a dog named Petey and recently acquired a kitten named Spritz.

Dr. Antonucci’s office is located with the Genesis ENT Group at 2945 Maple Ave. in Zanesville. He is accepting new patients. His phone number is 740-454-0158.
