Research

Focus

  • My area of interest is the overlap of womens health and medical education, educating residents and students in womens health. I established a womens clinic to teach the skills of the gynecologic exam, management of the menopause, and principles of reproductive health. A didactic curriculum complements the experiential aspects of this.
