Obstetrics and Gynecology is the medical specialty that encompasses the two subspecialties of obstetrics (covering pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period) and gynecology (covering the health of the female reproductive system – vagina, uterus, ovaries, and breasts). An obstetrician-gynecologist, or OB-GYN, is a healthcare professional who specializes in female reproductive health. 

In honor of her clinical expertise, Dr. Cyr is the recipient of Compassionate Doctor Recognition (2015, 2018) and Patients’ Choice Award (2015, 2018).
