Abbey grew up in the snow country of Wyoming, and her journey into healthcare began with occupational therapy at Northwest College before she shifted toward health sciences at the University of Wyoming. That foundation led her to A.T. Still University, where she completed her Physician Assistant Studies. What draws Abbey to women's health is the breadth of it, she thrives on the variety of seeing patients through every stage of life, from contraception counseling and fertility questions to navigating menopause. She especially loves living and working in the San Tan Valley community, where she feels she can make a real difference in a growing area. Abbey is committed to continued learning and practicing a high standard of medicine for every patient who walks through her door.

Angel's journey into midwifery began on the other side of the world. She earned her nursing degree at the National University of Singapore and spent her early career as an OB/GYN nurse at Mount Elizabeth Hospital, one of Singapore's premier private hospitals. It was there, witnessing births and caring for women through some of the most transformative moments of their lives, that she knew she wanted to do more than assist, she wanted to lead that care. Angel moved to the United States and completed her Master of Science in Nursing with a Nurse Midwifery focus at the University of Colorado Denver, where she also earned a post-graduate certificate as a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner. That combination gives her an unusually broad clinical lens, spanning pregnancy and birth through family planning and well-woman care. Outside the exam room, Angel is a serious home cook and baker who experiments with cuisines from around the world. Her favorite undertaking? Preparing sea cucumber from scratch, a painstaking, multi-day process that she says is absolutely worth every hour. She brings that same patience and attention to detail to every patient she sees.

Anushriya was born in India and grew up in Arizona, where she developed a fascination with the science behind human development. At Arizona State University, she dove deep into genetics, cell biology, and developmental biology before heading east to New York for her physician assistant training at Hofstra University. That cross-country move expanded her clinical world, rotations in OB/GYN, internal medicine, pediatrics, and surgery gave her a panoramic view of patient care. But it was women's health that pulled her in and held on. Anushriya returned to Arizona and joined MomDoc's Estrella office, where she brings that multidisciplinary training to every patient encounter. She is fluent in Hindi, which allows her to connect with patients and families in their preferred language.

Aya grew up right here in Gilbert, Arizona, and built her entire educational path close to home, from Chandler Gilbert Community College to Arizona State University and then A.T. Still University for her PA training. Her capstone project on smoking cessation was notable enough to be featured in the NCCPA's weekly newsletter, an early sign of her instinct for community-focused care. That instinct runs deep: Aya has volunteered with Phoenix Allies for Community Health locally and traveled to Tyre, Lebanon to serve alongside the Red Crescent on a medical mission. With clinical training that spanned OB/GYN, primary care, emergency medicine, and surgery, she brings a well-rounded perspective to women's health. For Aya, medicine has always been about serving the community she grew up in, and now she gets to do exactly that.

Becky's career in women's health spans over four decades, a timeline that says less about longevity and more about a provider who has never stopped finding meaning in the work. She started in nursing in the early 1980s, earned her Women's Health Nurse Practitioner certification in 1994, and has since practiced across a wide range of clinical settings in Arizona, from large OB/GYN groups to community-focused practices. Along the way, she became a dedicated educator, precepting nurse practitioner students from universities across the country and serving as an Adjunct Professor at Arizona State University. Her teaching was recognized with ASU's Preceptor of the Year Award in 2008. Becky is also a sought-after speaker on menopause management, HRT, HPV vaccination, and contraceptive care, and she works as a legal consultant in women's health. What drives her, after all these years, is the privilege of caring for women across every phase of life. She and her family recently moved to the White Mountains, and she is thrilled to bring her experience to the Show Low community.

Brynea's path to midwifery started in high school, when she met a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner who left a lasting impression. After high school, she headed south to escape the cold, earning her nursing degree at Oral Roberts University in Oklahoma, where she also met her husband, James. As a new nurse, she worked alongside a group of nurse-midwives whose approach to labor and birth care changed everything for her. Brynea went on to earn her midwifery degree from Frontier Nursing University in 2014, bringing over six years of nursing experience in maternal/newborn and labor and delivery, with a specialty in high-risk obstetrics. Her clinical journey spans hospitals across Oklahoma, Virginia, and the Washington, D.C. area, including Hillcrest Medical Center, Georgetown University Hospital, and Sibley Memorial Hospital. Brynea has also volunteered on medical mission trips to Uganda and Mexico, experiences that deepened her belief that every woman, regardless of circumstance, deserves attentive, respectful care during birth.

Cassandra was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, and after earning her nursing degree at BYU-Idaho, she made a beeline back to the desert, Idaho winters were not for her. She spent nine rewarding years as a registered nurse, but it was working alongside a home birth midwife that changed everything. Watching women receive that kind of unhurried, deeply personal care sparked something, and Cassandra knew she had found her calling. She enrolled at Frontier Nursing University to earn her midwifery degree and hasn't looked back. At MomDoc's Queen Creek office, she brings that same philosophy to every patient: birth is not just a medical event, it is one of the most transformative experiences of a woman's life, and she wants to be right there for it.

Christina's background in nutritional science might seem like an unusual starting point for a women's health PA, but it actually explains a lot about how she approaches patient care. Her undergraduate studies at the University of Arizona, where she double-minored in biochemistry and Spanish, gave her a foundational understanding of how the body works at every level. She carried that curiosity into her PA program at Northern Arizona University, where she led a team in the AAPA Medical Challenge Bowl and co-authored research on Coccidioidomycosis. After graduating, Christina worked in urgent care at Banner, but she found herself wanting more than episodic encounters. She wanted to know her patients over time, to educate and empower them, to be part of the ongoing story of their health rather than a single chapter. Women's health offered exactly that. At MomDoc, Christina brings a bilingual practice, she is fluent in Spanish, and a natural gift for patient education that makes even the most complex topics feel approachable.

Denise was born in the Philippines and moved to Phoenix as a child, growing up in the Valley for more than fifteen years before setting out on her own path through medicine. After earning her undergraduate degree at Arizona State University, she moved across the country to Worcester, Massachusetts, where she completed both her PA training and an MBA in Healthcare Management at MCPHS University. It was during her women's health rotation at St. Vincent Hospital that everything came together: assisting in deliveries, working through complex obstetric cases, and seeing firsthand how the right provider can change the trajectory of a patient's pregnancy. That experience made her certain she wanted to focus on women's health. Now back in the Valley, Denise brings a perspective shaped by both clinical depth and a business-minded approach to healthcare. She is especially drawn to labor and delivery and contraception counseling, and she values the kind of unhurried, honest conversations that help women feel confident in their care decisions.

Dr. Sabre's path to women's health started on the East Coast and wound through some unexpected places. After studying biology at Drexel University, he headed to Guadalajara, Mexico for medical school, and it was during clinical rotations that brought him to Phoenix where he first realized OB/GYN was where he belonged. He returned east to complete his residency at Lincoln Hospital in the Bronx, one of New York City's busiest safety-net hospitals, where managing a high volume of both routine and high-risk pregnancies became second nature. The experience sharpened his skills across the full spectrum of obstetrics and gynecologic surgery, with a particular focus on minimally invasive techniques. Dr. Sabre is also a dedicated researcher, with multiple peer-reviewed publications and presentations at national conferences. His research earned him the SOGH Inaugural Future Leaders Award and a CIR Patient Care Trust Fund Research Grant, recognition of the kind of curiosity that keeps him pushing for better outcomes. Now at MomDoc, he's excited to bring that blend of surgical skill, academic rigor, and hands-on clinical instinct to the women of the Valley.

Dr. McDaniel grew up in Indiana and knew early on that she wanted a career where she could build real, lasting relationships with patients. After earning her biology degree from the University of Southern Indiana, she headed to Indiana University School of Medicine, then began residency at Case Western Reserve MetroHealth Medical Center in Ohio. She ultimately completed her OB/GYN training at the Sunrise Health GME Consortium in Las Vegas, where she was named Chief Resident and received the Award for Patient Care, an honor voted on by faculty and staff who saw her day in and day out. Throughout her training, Dr. McDaniel was drawn to leadership roles, serving on multiple committees that shaped how her residency program operated and how residents were supported. Her clinical interests center on robotic and minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, an area where she has published research on expanding resident participation. She is also deeply invested in colposcopy and cervical pathology, the kind of meticulous, detail-oriented work that can catch problems early and change outcomes. Dr. McDaniel brings that same precision and care to every patient encounter at MomDoc.

Dr. Gambou was born in Bordeaux, France and moved to the United States at fifteen, attending a French high school in the LA area. That early experience of navigating two cultures instilled an adaptability that has shaped her ever since, she speaks French and Spanish alongside English, and she has practiced medicine across three continents. As an undergraduate at Cal State Northridge, she completed an international internship at University Hospital of Brazzaville in Congo, an experience that deepened her commitment to serving women regardless of background or circumstance. She went on to earn her Doctorate of Osteopathic Medicine from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine before completing her OB/GYN residency at Rutgers Health/Newark Beth Israel Medical Center in New Jersey. There, she managed high-risk pregnancies and trained in minimally invasive techniques including DaVinci robotic surgery, while also serving on the Resident Wellness Committee, a role that reflects her belief that good medicine starts with taking care of the people who provide it. Dr. Gambou brings that same philosophy to her patients at MomDoc: meet people where they are, listen first, and never underestimate the power of feeling understood.

Dr. Flores is the first physician in her family, a fact that still carries weight for her every time she walks into an exam room. Growing up in Puerto Rico, she was drawn to science early and earned her undergraduate degree at the University of Puerto Rico at Cayey, where she also conducted research at the NIH Laboratory of Molecular Biology. She went on to medical school at Ponce Health Sciences University and completed her OB/GYN residency at Hospital Episcopal San Lucas, where she developed a particular focus on high-risk pregnancy and preterm labor management. Her research comparing antibiotic regimens for pregnant women with PPROM earned first place at the program's annual research symposium. But what sets Dr. Flores apart is the thread of service that runs through everything she does. In Puerto Rico, she founded LUAF, a community service group that partnered with the American Red Cross, and she was on the ground during hurricane relief efforts across the island. Her recent move to Arizona is the beginning of a new chapter, but the mission hasn't changed: bring the same determination and community-first mindset to the women she cares for at MomDoc.

Dr. Faro is the kind of physician who has done research on a remote Antarctic station and still calls the delivery room her favorite place to be. Originally from Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, she studied biomedical sciences at Auburn University, then headed to Creighton in Omaha for both her master's thesis, studying parasitology, and her medical degree. Residency at the University of Texas at Houston confirmed her love for OB/GYN, and her colleagues took notice early, recognizing her with teaching and resident awards across multiple years. After training, Dr. Faro built a practice in Houston and spent over 16 years at The Woman's Hospital of Texas, where she rose through the ranks from Secretary to Vice President to President of Medical Staff, ultimately chairing the Department of Obstetrics. Along the way, she contributed to peer-reviewed research and took part in a National Science Foundation project with the United States Antarctic Program, two months on the ice, a long way from the labor ward. When it was time for a new chapter, Dr. Faro brought that breadth of experience to MomDoc's Scottsdale office. Whether she is managing a high-volume delivery day or walking a patient through a complex diagnosis, she draws on a career defined by curiosity, leadership, and an unwillingness to stay in one lane.

Dr. Rowan is a Phoenix native who took the long way home. She grew up near Arcadia, then headed east to Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania, where the small, rigorous academic environment shaped her love of science. Medical school brought her back to the University of Arizona, and residency took her to San Jose, California, for OB/GYN training at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center. After finishing, she spent eight years in a group practice in Fairfield, California, honing the full breadth of obstetric and gynecologic care. But Arizona kept calling. Dr. Rowan returned to the Valley to be closer to family and has been practicing here ever since, bringing decades of experience and the kind of steady, grounded perspective that comes from a career built across multiple practice settings. She values long-term patient relationships and believes that great care starts with truly knowing the person sitting across from you.

Dr. Russell's career in OB/GYN stretches back more than three decades, and the thread connecting all of it is a drive to lead, teach, and raise the bar for patient care. She started at Austin College in Sherman, Texas, earned her medical degree from UT Southwestern, and trained at Vanderbilt, one of the country's premier academic medical centers. During residency, she was selected as a Galloway Fellow at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, an experience that deepened her understanding of gynecologic oncology and complex patient care. After finishing at Vanderbilt, she stayed on to direct intern education before heading into practice. Over the years, Dr. Russell has led OB/GYN departments at hospitals in Alabama and maintained a private practice for nearly three decades. She brings that depth of clinical and administrative experience to MomDoc, where she continues to do what she has always done: deliver thorough, experienced care while mentoring the next generation of providers around her.

Dr. Andres knew early on that she wanted medicine to be about more than a single exam room. At the University of Arizona, she double-majored in Molecular and Cellular Biology and Physiology while picking up a minor in Spanish, already thinking about the communities she hoped to serve. Medical school at the University of Nevada deepened that commitment through a scholarly concentration in Global Health, and international volunteer work in Nicaragua showed her what healthcare looks like when resources are scarce and creativity matters. She completed her OB/GYN residency at St. Francis Hospital in Connecticut, where she stepped into leadership roles with ACOG and continued mentoring students and peers. Dr. Andres is also a Clinical Skills Instructor, a chapter leader for the Asian Pacific American Medical Student Association, and someone who writes and develops a podcast on the history of OB/GYN. She brings all of that energy to MomDoc, where she practices with a global perspective and a belief that every patient deserves a provider who sees the full picture.

Dr. Arostegui grew up in the Dominican Republic, where his grandfather, a cardiologist, planted the seed for a life in medicine. Surrounded by women in his family from an early age, he found himself drawn to OB/GYN for the way it blends clinical care, primary care, and procedural skill into a single specialty. He earned his medical degree at Universidad Iberoamericana in Santo Domingo and, before residency, worked in gynecological oncology consulting and surgical services at CEDIMAT. A move to New York brought him to the Perlmutter Cancer Center at NYU Langone, where he conducted translational research in ovarian and endometrial cancers. He went on to complete his OB/GYN residency at BronxCare Health System, affiliated with the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Along the way, Dr. Arostegui has also served as a general practitioner and Spanish-English interpreter during a U.S. armed forces medical mission, providing surgical care to underserved communities in his home country. It is a thread that runs through his career: a pull toward the places and people where his skills can do the most good. What excites him now is building long-term relationships with patients, the kind of practice where he can follow a woman's health across years, not just visits.

Dr. Raffoul brings a worldly perspective to her practice, someone who appreciates different cultures, different flavors, and the different ways women experience their health. She earned her medical degree from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Nicaragua and has spent the last 22 years refining her clinical expertise. Her approach to OB/GYN care centers on honest, straightforward communication and the belief that every patient deserves a provider who truly listens. Whether guiding someone through a high-risk pregnancy or navigating a complex gynecologic concern, Dr. Raffoul treats each visit as a chance to build real trust. She joined MomDoc's Indian School office to do exactly the kind of medicine she set out to practice: thorough, personal, and always focused on the whole woman.

Dr. Chico's commitment to his community was forged in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, when he provided care to underserved communities across Puerto Rico while still in training. That experience solidified what he already knew: medicine matters most when people need it most. He grew up on the island, studied natural sciences at the University of Puerto Rico in Mayaguez, and earned his medical degree at Ponce Health Sciences University. His OB/GYN residency at St. Luke's Episcopal Medical Center in Ponce made him Chief Resident and a two-time research award winner for work on pregnancy-related liver disease and preeclampsia prevention. Dr. Chico has advanced training in minimally invasive techniques including vNOTES and robotic surgery, and he holds a particular interest in urogynecology. What he loves about OB/GYN is the range: one day he is counseling a patient through a difficult decision, the next he is in the operating room. He brings that versatility and a bilingual practice to MomDoc's Chandler office.
