Care Philosophy: I take pride in providing my patients with individualized, patient-centered care. I believe every woman has unique needs and goals, and our care team works to provide a full range of OBGYN healthcare to serve those varied needs. Pregnancy and birth are very special events in the lives of women. I believe that this experience is unique for each woman. I see my role as supportive of the woman and her family, understanding that ultimately the experience of pregnancy and birth belongs to them. Our team serves families as guides during this natural process. We feel privileged to participate in this journey. I am also happy to assist patients with menstrual issues, fertility, family planning, hormonal concerns, pelvic pain, infections, as well as general health maintenance screenings. I focus on patient education whenever possible. My goal is to provide patients with complete and clear information, which in turn will allow active participation in the decisions and plans of treatment.
