Q&A

I’ve wanted to be a doctor since I was a teenager. Volunteering at multiple Atlanta-area hospitals, I was drawn to the fast-paced application of science alongside the humanistic compassion of caring for others. Throughout college and medical school, I grew to love the endocrine system as it combined my interest in organic chemistry with physiology. These seemingly small molecules could lead to big impact in the body, even resulting in the way we feel and interact with the world. Reproductive endocrinology was a natural extension of these interests, as it paired the science of medicine with the art and impact of family building. 

I knew I wanted to pursue reproductive endocrinology during my second year of medical school. During our reproductive/women’s health block, I was able to shadow the reproductive endocrinologist at Wake Forest, who not only spent time with me discussing the ins and outs of the endocrine system but showed me the magic of the high-tech embryology lab. I loved how medical treatment, surgical procedures, and embryological culture were elegantly combined to help patients and couples achieve their goal of having children. While many other rotations in medical school showed me the struggles at the end of life, I fell in love with how OBGYN and REI showed me the meaning of beginning life. I was reminded of my mother telling me as I grew up that family was everything and persisted above all. To give the hope of parenthood to a patient or a couple struggling to conceive during a first OB ultrasound is a big part of my why. 

I am incredibly proud to join SGF because I get the privilege to care for the patients and couples of Atlanta. Growing up in Atlanta, I always dreamed of coming back home after medical training to give back to the community that raised me and showed me what it meant to be a doctor in the South. By joining SGF, I also get to work with empathic physicians and staff that constantly strive to provide top-notch evidence-based medicine with the best evolving technology and cost-conscious fertility programs that make care accessible to every patient. 

While I draw inspiration from every patient’s experience, a particular patient comes to mind that I cared for in fellowship. As a third-year fellow, we were responsible for the oncofertility service, which provided fertility consults to patients prior to starting cancer treatment. I had a patient who was a young female in her early 30s that was diagnosed with a rare, aggressive form of breast cancer. Prior to seeing the patients, I reviewed her chemotherapy regimen and treatment plan with her oncologists, revealing a long, arduous treatment course with many medications that will likely impact her future fertility. During our consult, she was optimistic and steadfast, with a notebook filled with questions on the expectations of fertility preservation and future outcomes. She showed me the grit and determination patients have towards their future. She also pushed me to be a better, more informed doctor through her experience and questions. That experience further solidified my understanding of how important family building is, no matter the hurdles, and how impactful an REI can be in that journey. 

My approach to every patient is to listen intently and share in the burden of their fertility journey, however that may present. I recognize each patient’s journey starts at a different place, and I work to meet them where they are. I always aim to serve as not only their physician but their advocate, and confidante, and try to foster a relationship grounded in compassion, honesty, transparency, and evidence-based care. In the tough times, I hope to help experience and process the moments of vulnerability. In the happy times, I hope to celebrate the hard work taken to get there. Working together, I hope to guide each patient/couple in personalized decision-making to take steps towards achieving their fertility goals. 

I draw a large portion of my daily inspiration from my mother. As the daughter of first-generation immigrants, I learned from an early age the challenges and sacrifices needed to succeed in a new country. My mother came to the U.S. to pursue a master’s degree in computer science, and many times was the only female in her male-dominated work environment. She taught me how to be confident and persevere in science and showed me how to work hard towards achieving my goals. Above all, she always prioritized family and kept a warm, positive attitude. As I became a mother, I have further appreciated the need for work-life balance and hope to carry her inspiration forward to my own children. 

I am bubbly and warm, always striving to make sure the people around me are cared for and feel welcome. I am creative and resourceful, which helps me navigate unique clinical situations for my patients. I am curious and detail-oriented, always aiming to find a solution and advocate for my patients and colleagues. 

I would love to scuba dive with the hammerhead sharks in the Red Sea, visit every national park in America, step foot on every continent, and hike the Grand Canyon rim to rim. As a mom, I can’t wait to show my kids the beauty of the world around us! 

In my spare time, I love traveling and experiencing new cultures and foods. I love all things outdoors such as hiking, scuba diving, skiing, and gardening. At home, I relax by cooking, baking, puzzling, and spending time with my husband, son, and two cats, Marie and Fritz.
