Born at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas himself, Emil Tajzoy, MD, seemed fated to become part of the hospital’s expert surgical staff. While gaining his Bachelor of Science at Southern Methodist University he assisted in neurological research at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, where he would later discover his calling in obstetrics and gynecology.
During his OB/GYN residency at Parkland Memorial Hospital, Dr. Tajzoy was recognized for his remarkable patient care and unflagging dedication to teaching medical students, earning membership in the prestigious Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Medical Society. He then pursued a gynecological surgery fellowship at Texas Health Presbyterian, where he impressed some of the most renowned surgeons in north Texas with his abilities in minimally invasive robotic and laparoscopic surgeries. Dr. Tajzoy is particularly adept in performing robotic-assisted abdominal cerclage surgery, an operation to reduce the risk of early pregnancy loss.
Dr. Tajzoy has committed himself to providing compassionate, personalized, evidence-based care to his patients. This includes not only minimally invasive surgery, but routine and high-risk obstetric care, contraceptive management, preventive health, and menopause. He prides himself in building trusting, lifelong relationships with his patients.
Not only a renowned surgeon, but a committed educator as well, Dr. Tajzoy teaches the next generation of doctors by serving as the editor and host of OB/GYN lectures for Doctors in Training, a prestigious medical board review course. He instructs the Dad Basic Training class at Texas Health Presbyterian as well. He also travels to Guatemala for surgical mission trips where he performs gynecologic surgeries for the underserved.
Outside of work, Dr. Tajzoy enjoys playing tennis, attending the theater, watching movies, and traveling the world with his amazing wife Catherine, a skilled ICU nurse at Baylor University Medical Center.
