Dr. Frame is a caring obstetrician-gynecologist in practice at Mobile Ob-Gyn in Alabama.

“I have always desired to be an educated and compassionate physician that strives to make patients feel important and understood. Recently the tables were turned and I experienced life from the patient side. I have three beautiful children. The most recent delivered here at Providence in April of 2019. I am amazed how much stronger my connection with my patients has grown since becoming a mother” expressed the doctor.

Born and raised in Martin, Tennessee, she completed her undergraduate education at the East Tennessee State University in 2006, and graduated with her medical degree from the James H.
