Biography: As the daughter of a cardiologist father and ICU nurse mother, I have always had a love of medicine and caring for people. Putting others first was always a priority for me and my family. \n I fell in love with obstetrics and gynecology in residency, where I learned I could get to know a patient throughout their lifetime. I could be with them through the milestones of first menstrual period, pregnancies and even surgical management, if needed. Being an ob-gyn lets me do it all -from delivering babies to hysterectomies and everything in between. I am so blessed to be able to maintain a relationship with, and take care of, women and their families for life. \n I strive to treat each patient as an individual with care specialized for them, but also as I would treat any member of my family. Seeing an ob-gyn, especially for the first time, can be scary and I want to make it as comfortable and easy as possible. \n At home, I am a wife and a mother of two boys and a Bernedoodle puppy. I love exercising, my Peloton bike and spending time outside with my family and friends.
