As a Female Pelvic Medicine and Reconstructive Surgeon, I find myself dealing primarily with quality of life issues. Many of these issues can be difficult to bring up and talk about but are incredibly lifestyle limiting to patients. I strive to create an environment where it is easy to talk about such problems. I also try to establish a relationship through which we work together to try and achieve the best outcome. I have always loved working with and helping people and wanted to be a physician since I was eight years old. I am passionate about education and ensure that my patients are always well informed about their issues and about what options they have for improvement. I am committed to delivering safe, high-quality care and have been designated a Surgeon of Excellence in Robotic Surgery by the Surgical Review Corporation. Outside of work, I love photography, travel and road cycling. I also love to cook.
