Biography
“I have felt that gynecologic oncology was my calling for decades. I am drawn to the complexity of the medical and surgical care, but it is the incredibly rich and meaningful connections and relationships with patients and their families that keep me going when things are tough.”

She specializes in gynecologic oncology with a focus on ovarian, uterine, cervical, vaginal, vulvar and peritoneal cancers; cervical, vaginal and vulvar dysplasias; complex ovarian cysts; borderline tumors; pelvic masses; postmenopausal bleeding and vulvar and vaginal melanomas.
She is committed to providing women with the best possible care they can receive and believes each patient deserves to be treated like a family member.
