I believe open communication between physician and patient is essential to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.  Focused, in-depth discussions enable a patient to make informed decisions impacting her health and wellness.  My goal is to facilitate this communication process and to provide the quality care my patients deserve.
Special interests include general obstetrics and gynecology, management of menstrual dysfunction, health maintenance, and minimally invasive surgical techniques.

Received B.S. Biology/Psychology at University of Houston.  Prior to receiving my medical degree from Ross University School of Medicine, I had the chance to participate in medical research and publish my research.  I completed OB/GYN residency at Texas Tech University Health Science Center – El Paso.  Received award for excellence in laparoscopic surgery and best teaching resident award.

My interests include spending as much time as possible with my two daughters and husband, walks, shopping and traveling.
