I have been an attending physician at Mass General hospital since 1993. Currently, I am the Division Director of Benign Gynecology and Obstetrics and the Associate Director of the third year clerkship director for Mass General at Harvard Medical School. I provide specialized gynecologic care for abnormal bleeding, fibroids and endometriosis, including up to date medical and surgical technologies such as endometrial ablation, hysteroscopic surgery and laparoscopic and vaginal hysterectomy and myomectomy. I enjoy longstanding relationships with patients, and guide them through OB/GYN care through their life span. Within my practice at Mass General West I care for many women with advanced maternal age pregnancy. I also have expertise in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, perimenopause and the gynecologic care of breast cancer patients. In addition to teaching, I am interested in patient safety, teamwork training and simulation within the department. My primary focus however is personalized patient care within the outstanding OB/GYN department at Mass General .

I saw this Dr. to get a second opinion and we ended up on the same page. She was great answering all my questions.
