About Me

care philosophy

As an obstetrician/gynecologist, I believe in empowering women to understand their own bodies. I strive for us to work together for the patient's best health. I think teaching is the best way I support and encourage my patients- whether in adolescence, womanhood, motherhood, or reaching into menopause.
