Personal Statement
I believe every woman deserves to feel heard, respected and informed about her health. My goal is to be a partner to my patients through life's milestones: preventive care, gynecologic care, pregnancy to postpartum, menopause and beyond. I take the time to listen, answer questions and explain options clearly so that each patient can make the decisions that are right for her.
I’m committed to evidence-based medicine and helping my patients make informed decisions for themselves. Just as important, I want every patient to leave my office feeling supported and confident in her care. As a native Houstonian, I’m proud to care for the women of the community that raised me.
When I'm not at work, you can find me spending time with my family, reading, enjoying the outdoors or at pilates.
