Overview

I specialize in the care of patients before, during, and after pregnancy. I have specialized training in prenatal diagnosis including diagnostic procedures such as amniocentesis and CVS. I also provide prenatal care for patients who may be considered high-risk for many reasons such as a pre-existing condition (high blood pressure, diabetes etc), a genetic or fetal condition, or an unexpected condition that arises during pregnancy such as pre-eclampsia or gestational diabetes. The most important thing to me is that patients feel like they have been listened to and heard during their visits with me. I try to treat every patient with the same level of care that I would want my sister or best friend to receive. Each patient know their body and their pregnancy the best and it is our job to work together as a team to have the best outcomes possible.

Her top area of expertise is Methimazole Antenatal Exposure.

Her clinical research consists of co-authoring 4 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.

"I can distinctly remember the awe and utter amazement I felt watching my first cesarean delivery. I knew that there was a baby inside the mother's abdomen, but it was amazing to see the doctors deliver it. To see it just ""pop out"". Still, to this day, I get that feeling of awe and amazement every time I help a mom deliver her baby. I feel so lucky to be part of such a wonderful moment in a family's life. As a maternal fetal medicine specialist, I take care of sick moms, sick babies, and sick pregnancies. Each day, while I get to help women and their families with big wins and happy moments, I also have the opportunity to help them through sad times and some of the worst moments of their lives. It is these hard and sad moments that make the happy ones even more meaningful. I also spend some of my time helping to teach medical students about Ob/Gyn. I really enjoy teaching, and sharing my love for Ob/Gyn with young learners is one of my favorite parts of my job. My other very important job is being a mom. I have three fantastic young boys that keep me busy and remind me on a daily basis how important family is. I love to swim and make jam. Apricot Jam is my favorite.".
