I went into medicine in order to become an obstetrician and gynecologist. I fell in love with the obstetrical part of women’s care because of the involvement in the miracle of birth. In my opinion, there is no happier part of medicine. I am also drawn to the challenges of gynecology, and I am proud to be able to aid in women’s healthcare from adolescence to post-menopause and all that falls in between.
