About me
I was born and raised in the picturesque state of Assam, India. I earned my medical degree from Gauhati Medical College, followed by a residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the esteemed Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGIMER) in Chandigarh, India. Driven by a strong passion for Gynecologic Oncology, I moved to the United States to further my training.
My surgical training began with a residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Henry Ford Health System in Michigan. I subsequently completed two fellowships: critical care fellowship and fellowship in gynecological oncology. Having always enjoyed the challenges of managing critically ill patients, I decided to pursue critical care fellowship which not only enhanced my critical thinking and problem solving skills but also made me better prepared to pursue a career in Gynecologic Oncology
What types of cancer do you specialize in treating?
I specialize in all areas of gynecological cancer such as ovarian, cervical, uterine, vaginal, and other cancers of the female reproductive organs.
What types of procedures do you specialize in?
I have extensive training in laparoscopic, robotic and complex pelvic and abdominal surgeries.
Tell us why a patient should choose treatment at your practice
My patients often share that they feel more informed and confident after meeting with me, which I deeply value. Many choose to continue their care with me, and I take that trust to heart. I’m committed to offering the most up-to-date, evidence-based treatment options while ensuring that each person feels listened to, supported, and truly cared for throughout their journey.
What is your personal philosophy around patient care?
In my experience, caring for patients goes far beyond making a diagnosis and planning treatment. In gynecologic oncology, it's just as important to understand each patient’s personal story, values, and how they view their condition. Taking the time to listen and connect allows me to offer guidance that’s not only medically sound but also aligned with what truly matters to them.
My care philosophy is rooted in balance—when a cure is possible, I’m committed to pursuing it with focused and comprehensive treatment. When cure is not an option, my priority shifts to preserving quality of life, providing comfort, and supporting patients and their families with compassion and clarity.
Tell us a few things about your personal life, such as family, hobbies, interests, etc.
I was born and raised in Assam, a beautiful state in northeastern India, where I also completed my early education. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to live and work in various parts of India, before moving to the U.S. in 2009 to further pursue my passion for medicine and healthcare.
At home, it’s just the three of us—my husband, our curious and energetic 5-year-old son, and me. With four languages spoken in our household, our son is well on his way to becoming a little quadrilingual! My husband and I both love cooking and enjoy experimenting with different cuisines together—it’s one of our favorite ways to unwind.
Traveling is something I truly enjoy, and I try to use my vacation time to explore both new corners of the U.S. and destinations abroad. I’ve also completed several courses in meditation and yoga, which help me stay grounded and centered, especially in challenging moments.
On a cool day, one of my favorite things to do is take long walks with my husband. We talk about anything and everything—life, food, nature, space, even soap operas.

He then graduated from Saint Louis University School of Medicine in Saint Louis, Missouri, followed by residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Cleveland Clinic and Case Western Reserve University MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland, Ohio. Following residency, he completed three additional years of fellowship training to acquire advanced expertise in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery, colloquially called Urogynecology, at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.
Dr. Jeppson is board-certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, in both Obstetrics and Gynecology and sub-specialty certified in Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery (FPRMS). In addition, he is a fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and a fellow of the American College of Surgeons. He worked at University of New Mexico from 2013 – 2022, serving as the Director of the Division of Urogynecology from 2016 – 2022.
Dr. Jeppson has been very involved in several national and international organizations and has published over 50 research articles in prestigious scientific journals on the treatment of pelvic floor disorders. Many of these research articles were selected as required reading for physicians practicing in the US to maintain board certification. Dr. Jeppson is a board examiner for the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology which is the exam for practicing gynecologists in the US to become board certified, as well as a board examiner for FPMRS board certification. Both are markers of excellence and demonstrate commitment to the highest and most current standards of care.

Dr. Jeppson was recently awarded a multimillion-dollar grant to directly compare treatment options for the treatment of Urgency Urinary Incontinence. He will retain his affiliation with UNM through 2027 to help oversee and complete this research study.
For the past 10 years, Dr. Jeppson has traveled to Rwanda as part of a surgical team to help treat women suffering from pelvic fistula as a result of complications from childbirth. In this role, he provides direct patient care to women that would not otherwise have access to treatment, thereby restoring quality of life and allowing them to reintegrate into society. While in Rwanda, he also teaches students, residents, and doctors on the best practices to treat fistula, which generally requires complex surgical planning.
Dr. Jeppson has extensive experience treating pelvic floor disorders including urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, and pelvic organ prolapse. In addition, he is experienced in treating complicated issues following prior surgeries such as fistula, or issues associated with pelvic mesh. He was Recognized as one of Albuquerque’s “Top Doctors” in Albuquerque The Magazine in 2022, 2020, 2019, 2017, and 2015. He is excited to bring his expertise to Phoenix and help patients while working at The Woman’s Center.
