VaginitisorVaginosis near Hastings, MN

Biography: I am a board-certified maternal-fetal medicine specialist, a physician who cares for women with complicated pregnancies. I work with a care team to optimize the health and well-being of mothers and babies with high-risk medical conditions. I follow my patients closely throughout their pregnancy. I also see patients who may have had a previous high-risk pregnancy or who have a suspected issue in their current pregnancy, but who after a single consultation visit are normal and resume routine care with their OB-GYN. My goal is to provide compassionate, patient-oriented and evidence-based care. I want patients to feel educated and empowered to make decisions that are right for them and their families.

Biography: I enjoy working with children of all ages ranging from newborns to early adulthood and find joy in all areas of primary care. My goal is to provide the best care possible for each family and their children's unique needs. This includes following families as their children meet new milestones during well-child care, helping sick children get better as soon as possible and ensuring all parent questions are answered. I grew up in Apple Valley, MN and am very happy to have returned to the Twin Cities after my schooling. I enjoy music, spending time on the lake, movies, and most of all, spending time with my family and friends. My husband works in the environmental sciences and we have two young children (daughter and son) who keep us very busy while filling our household with joy.

Biography: I find medicine fascinating because it is such a diverse and rapidly changing field with more to learn every day. OB-GYN and women's health in particular is such a diverse practice of building relationships in the clinic, learning from and with my patients, performing both minor and major surgery and getting to share in the birth of a child. I have particular interest in international and immigrant health and enjoy working with patients from medically, socially and culturally diverse backgrounds. I enjoy helping patients understand their medical concerns and conditions. My philosophy of care involves empowering women to understand their choices in medical care and to make healthy choices for themselves and their families.

Biography: I love being an OB-GYN. Providing compassionate and evidence-based care for patients during the biggest and most vulnerable moments of their lives (like childbirth, surgery, etc.) is such an honor. One of the best parts about being an OB-GYN is the privilege to take care of a patient from when they are a teenager all the way through menopause and beyond, and I look forward to these longitudinal relationships with my patients. I have a special interest in caring for adolescent and young adult patients. I am passionate about making the OB-GYN office a safe, inclusive, comfortable and positive experience for people of all backgrounds and life experiences. I am committed to a collaborative relationship with patients where they are heard and have a voice in their care.
