I’ve known that I wanted to be a doctor since I was a kid, and medical school confirmed I wanted to be an OB/GYN. After residency I moved back home and started with SVI Women’s Clinic. Once they closed the OB Floor, I was lucky enough to be found by The Woman’s Clinic in 2019!
Helping my patients through rough patches. Life is hard enough as it is for everyone, but when we go through this process from start to finish, it becomes personal.
I've become a better listener for my patients. Not everything goes as planned, but building a bond with my patients helps us overcome and create the best plan for them.
Take a step back and breathe. Collect my thoughts and then reevaluate the new situation at hand.
In medical school I realized that I was going to be able to have continuity with my patients and be able to perform surgeries.

The connection that I have with my patients. I love the continuity in this profession and that drives me to give the best of what I have.
When my own network of friends and family started trusting me enough to become their long-term care provider! It's SO AWESOME!
Tying together mental health and this profession. Our patients are dealing with a variety of situations and outcomes, so I think it's extremely important to acknowledge them in our field.
