I decided to become an OB/GYN because I enjoy being able to build a relationship with my patients that can last a lifetime. I am able to treat, help, counsel and comfort women during life’s major transitions of puberty, young adulthood, motherhood, menopause and beyond. In what other field can one have the joys of establishing long-term bonds with patients and help bring new life into the world? All I can say is, I love my job!

    I did not like that I had to wait an hour because I was 8 min late. I've been late to other ARC's and was not treated this way. I won't be returning to this location.
