Some of the procedures that I perform include chorionic villus sampling, amniocentesis, cesarean deliveries, and vaginal deliveries. My team of excellent and experienced physicians use incredible technology to help guide women through their pregnancies. I also believe in treating my patients as whole individuals, using a personalized approach to help them with their pregnancy management” expressed the doctor.

Passionate about her profession, the doctor is board-certified in maternal-fetal medicine and obstetrics & gynecology by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG). The mission of the ABOG is to define specialty standards, certify obstetricians and gynecologists, and facilitate continuous learning to advance knowledge, practice, and professionalism in women’s health.

Maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) is a subspecialty of obstetrics and gynecology that focuses on managing health concerns of the mother and fetus prior to, during, and shortly after pregnancy. Maternal-fetal medicine specialists are physicians who subspecialize within the field of obstetrics. For pregnant women with chronic health problems or other complications during their pregnancy, MFM specialists work to keep them as healthy as possible while their bodies carry a pregnancy. They also care for women who face unexpected problems that develop during pregnancy such as early labor, bleeding or high blood pressure.
