Care Philosophy: Virginia Physicians for Women is dedicated to helping you take control of your health. Every doctor in our practice believes that a collaborative partnership, built on trust and respect, is the most effective way for you to achieve sustained health and well-being. Our staff shares this philosophy. This highly skilled team, specially trained and certified by their respective professional organizations, will work closely with you and your physician to provide you with optimal care. We know there's not a whole lot that can make a woman feel more vulnerable than a visit to an Ob/Gyn. It's our mission not only to relieve your anxiety, but to put the power of good health in your hands.

Care Philosophy: I will cover my patients exclusively, that means the doctor you see in the office will be the doctor you talk to on the phone when you have a question and the doctor who is in the delivery room with you when you have your baby. I believe this is important to patients and for the continuity of care. Medicine needs to return to the days when it was unheard of to have a doctor you have never met walk into your room and deliver your baby.
