Philosophy of care | I consider myself a teacher as well as a doctor. I believe it’s critically important that women understand the “why” behind the health issues they face. Although the science can sometimes be complex, I always take time to explain in simple terms what is happening to their bodies and their treatment options. The more my patients know, the more actively they can participate in their own care. | Why I entered medicine | As a child I loved science. I also wanted to help people. And I had some personal medical issues that helped me understand what it’s like to be a patient. That’s why I always knew I would become a doctor. It seemed like the perfect combination of my interests and experience. It has been especially meaningful to be a gynecologist. I consider it a privilege to be a part of women’s lives and to be able to help them with complex medical and surgical issues. In many cases we discuss personal issues as well, and I’m honored my patients trust me with this aspect of their lives. | Personal interests | I want my patients to know I’m just like them. I am a wife, a mother of three teenaged daughters and a proud member of this community. I see my patients at the grocery store, the mall, at my children’s schools and at their sporting events. I’m at the same stage of life as my patients and face many of the same issues, both physical and personal. To relax and unwind, I enjoy spending time with family. We like to hike, bike and do other outdoor activities. Dr. Haas is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Endometritis.

My goal is to provide you with excellent evidence-based compassionate care and treat you as if you are part of my own family. | Why I entered medicine | Deciding to pursue a medical career was a journey of discovery as I initially tried to stay away from the field.

Philosophy of care | My philosophy revolves around optimizing quality of life through minimally invasive options. I was fortunate during my training to work with nationally recognized surgeons, leading to experience in complex gynecologic care and allowing me to be an early adopter of minimally invasive options. Such advances give patients same-day options that allow them to return to their busy lives faster. I have advocated in many hospital systems for laparoscopy, robotics, minimally invasive procedures for incontinence and office-based procedures. Minimal pain, faster recovery and cutting-edge technology is the platform for all my patient care. Many are not aware that a simple solution exists for what is often an embarrassing topic to discuss. | Why I entered medicine | As a child, I was inspired by my father, who practiced medicine. As I pursued a medical career, I recognized immediately how much I was drawn to surgery and women's health.

Today I have the privilege of making a profound impact on the lives of my patients. Through my ongoing pursuit of the latest in research, innovation and technology, I strive to limit pain, cure disease and improve the overall health and well-being of many women. | Personal interests | I enjoy spending time with family.

Philosophy of care | I consider myself an educator and facilitator. It’s my responsibility to help patients understand their condition, and guide them to make health care decisions in which they are comfortable and confident. | Why I entered medicine | I’ve always had a fascination with how the body works. I wouldn’t say that I chose to specialize in women’s health. It chose me. When I was a medical student, I was awestruck when I helped deliver a baby. When I deliver a baby today, I still am.
