Alicia's road to women's health started in a surprising place, pediatric care for medically complex children. That early experience taught her the value of listening carefully, thinking holistically, and never rushing a patient through an appointment. She earned her nursing degree from Chamberlain College of Nursing and later completed her family nurse practitioner training at Grand Canyon University, building expertise across women's health, family practice, and pediatric care. At MomDoc's Mercy Gilbert office, Alicia combines that broad clinical foundation with a warm, approachable style that puts patients at ease. She is the kind of provider who makes time for the extra question and who remembers the details that matter.

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.

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.

Emily grew up in Mesa watching her mother work as a labor and delivery nurse, and the pull toward women's health was there long before she had a name for it. She started her own path at Arizona State University with a degree in Nutrition and Dietetics, then worked as a medical scribe in a Scottsdale emergency department and as a newborn hearing screener at Banner Gateway, each role bringing her closer to the clinical career she wanted. PA school took her to Hofstra University in New York, where she earned a National Health Service Corps Scholarship and rotated through OB/GYN at Mount Sinai South Nassau, emergency medicine at NYU Langone, and surgery at Northwell Health. Those experiences confirmed what growing up around her mom's work had already taught her: that the moments surrounding birth and women's health are some of the most meaningful in medicine. Now back home in Arizona, Emily brings East Coast training and a hometown connection to her patients at MomDoc.

Hannah grew up in a household where women's health was just part of everyday conversation, her mother was a nurse, and those kitchen-table discussions planted a seed early. At Aquinas College in Grand Rapids, Michigan, that seed took root when Hannah joined AQ Believes, an organization advocating for women who are survivors of sexual violence. The experience clarified everything: she wanted to spend her career caring for women. Hannah headed to Vanderbilt University for her Master of Science in Nursing, training in obstetrics, cardiac stepdown, and psychiatric nursing at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. She has also volunteered internationally, serving at a maternity hospital in Peru and on medical missions in the Dominican Republic and Guatemala, experiences that deepened her understanding of how profoundly access to care shapes outcomes. At MomDoc, Hannah brings that global perspective and that same early conviction to every patient she sees.

Kristen has such a cool MomDoc story! She started with MomDoc back in 2007 at the business office. Later on, Kristen earned her Registered Medical Assistant Certificate from Apollo College, followed by her Bachelor of Science in Human Nutrition from Arizona State University. While earning her undergraduate degree, she worked as a MomDoc Concierge. This is where she found her passion for women's health and desired to further her education. Kristen went on to earn her Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies from Northern Arizona University. Her deep history with MomDoc, including clinical rotations and years of work at the practice, gives her a unique understanding of the organization and its patients that very few providers can match.

Before Lindsey ever set foot in a clinical rotation, she spent her days as a habilitation therapist working one-on-one with a young child with autism. That experience, learning to meet a patient exactly where they are, with patience and creativity, shaped the kind of provider she would become. Lindsey studied kinesiology at Arizona State University, drawn to the science of how bodies move and heal. She carried that foundation to Loma Linda University in California, where her PA training took her through a wide sweep of specialties: emergency medicine, surgery, pediatric oncology, psychiatry, and the OB/GYN rotation that would chart her course. She found herself most at home in women's health, where the relationship between provider and patient is ongoing and deeply personal. Today, Lindsey is skilled in both the clinical and procedural sides of the practice, from well-woman care to first-assisting in laparoscopic and open surgeries. She brings a calm, thorough approach to every patient encounter, the kind of presence that makes even a routine appointment feel unhurried.

Lisa started her nursing career at the tiniest scale imaginable, the neonatal intensive care unit. At Phoenix Children's Hospital, she cared for critically ill newborns, including high-frequency ventilation patients and babies weighing under 1,000 grams, and attended high-risk deliveries to perform neonatal resuscitation. She had earlier gained experience in labor and delivery and medical telemetry at Tucson Medical Center, but it was the NICU that changed her trajectory. Working so closely with fragile newborns gave Lisa an urgent clarity: she wanted to reach women earlier, during pregnancy, when education and attentive care can alter outcomes before a baby ever arrives. That conviction sent her back to school at the University of Cincinnati, where she earned her master's in women's health nursing. Today, she brings a perspective shaped by the delivery room and the NICU, a provider who knows firsthand what is at stake and channels that knowledge into the kind of prenatal and well-woman care that helps patients feel informed, prepared, and supported.

Liz grew up in Boise, Idaho, and made her way to Utah for her undergraduate years at BYU, where she studied public health and discovered a love for the intersection of patient education and hands-on care. Before PA school, she worked as a Medical Assistant and eventually Lead Medical Assistant at a family medicine clinic, and she served as an Anatomy Lab Teaching Assistant at BYU. Those experiences confirmed what she already suspected: she wanted to be in the room with patients, not behind a desk. Liz completed her PA training at Midwestern University in Glendale, rotating through specialties ranging from emergency medicine to maternal-fetal medicine. It was her women's health rotations that sealed the deal. She was drawn to the way OB/GYN care lets her walk alongside women through every stage of life, from first prenatal visits to well-woman care and everything in between.

Luciana grew up in New Mexico and earned her nursing degree at the University of New Mexico before making the move to Arizona, where she landed in the postpartum and couplet care unit at St. Joseph's Medical Center. Working with new mothers and their babies during those earliest, most vulnerable hours sparked something that would define the next chapter of her career. She returned to school at Arizona State University to become a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner and has now been caring for women in that role for more than fifteen years. Luciana's approach centers on education and empowerment, she believes that when women truly understand their bodies and their options, they make the best decisions for their own health. "I love supporting women and empowering them with knowledge to establish their healthcare goals and needs," she says.

Marta took the long way to women's health, and that winding path is exactly what makes her standout. She started as a biology major at Hope College in Michigan, then earned a master's in environmental science at the University of Illinois and spent a decade at Booz Allen Hamilton leading federal environmental projects. Somewhere along the way, she realized the work she found most meaningful was the kind that happened face-to-face, not behind a desk. Marta headed to Chatham University in Pittsburgh for her Physician Assistant Studies, and it was during her clinical rotations at Zubritzky and Christy OB/GYN Associates, assisting with cesarean sections, vaginal births, and gynecological surgeries, that everything clicked. She brings a rare combination of scientific rigor, real-world problem-solving, and the steady calm of someone who once navigated federal bureaucracy for a living. Now she channels all of that into the care of her patients.

Megan grew up in St. Louis, Missouri, and studied nutritional sciences at the University of Missouri before heading west to Midwestern University in Glendale for PA school, trading Midwest winters for Arizona sunshine was an easy decision. It was during her clinical rotations that everything clicked. Working with women in an OB/GYN setting, Megan discovered the kind of provider she wanted to be: one who empowers patients with knowledge and walks alongside them through every stage. That background in nutrition gives her a distinctive lens on women's health, connecting the dots between lifestyle, wellness, and medical care in a way her patients find refreshing.

Most people know her as Shep. Born in Alabama and raised in Florida, she planted deep roots at Florida State University, earning both her undergraduate degree in exercise physiology and her PA master's there, Go Noles. Before PA school, Shep spent three years working in dermatology and served as a research assistant on a breast cancer survivorship study. The research pulled her closer to women's health, but it was her OB/GYN clinical rotation that sealed the decision. Watching the strength of the female body up close, and discovering the kind of provider-patient relationship that women's health makes possible, she knew she had found her specialty. As a National Health Service Corps Scholar, Shep has always felt the pull toward service. She has volunteered with the Ronald McDonald House, served on the FSU College of Medicine Council on Diversity and Inclusion, and joined a medical mission trip to Panama. That instinct carries into her daily practice, where she brings the same energy to a routine well-woman visit as she does to a complicated case. Shep believes women's health is as much about empowerment as it is about medicine, and she is here to deliver both.

Rochelle's nursing career began in 1971 in Dayton, Ohio, and in the decades since, she has built one of the most distinctive resumes in the Valley. She was a student in only the second OB/GYN Nurse Practitioner class ever offered in Arizona, becoming the 202nd OB/GYN NP in the state at a time when the role was still being defined. She spent over sixteen years in reproductive medicine at Arizona Reproductive Medical Specialists, where she coordinated clinical drug trials, performed ultrasounds and endometrial biopsies, and walked alongside couples navigating infertility. That work earned her the Award of Excellence in the Field of Assisted Production and led to published research in reproductive medicine. Along the way, Rochelle also taught the next generation, serving as an Adjunct Associate Professor and PA Program Lecturer at Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine's Southwestern Center in Phoenix. Earlier in her career, she cared for patients across obstetrics, antepartum, postpartum, gynecology, and the nursery at Good Samaritan Regional Medical Center, the kind of full-spectrum experience that gives her an intuitive sense of continuity most providers have to learn from textbooks. Rochelle joined MomDoc in 2013, bringing with her a career's worth of clinical wisdom and a deep understanding of what women need at every stage.

Stephanie's road to women's health started in a place most PAs never begin: the kitchen. She studied dietetics at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego and went on to complete her dietetic internship at the VA San Diego Healthcare System, becoming a Registered Dietitian and working in clinical nutrition at Mercy St. Charles Hospital. But nutrition was only one piece of the puzzle she wanted to solve. Stephanie moved to Toledo, Ohio, to pursue her PA degree at the University of Toledo, where she led the Student Academy of AAPA as president. After earning her master's in biomedical sciences, she traded Midwest winters for Arizona sunshine and brought with her a rare clinical combination: the ability to talk about hormone health, prenatal nutrition, and wellness management with the authority of both a registered dietitian and a certified physician assistant. That dual lens shapes every patient encounter. Stephanie sees women's health as inseparable from the daily choices we make about how we eat, move, and care for ourselves, and she has the training to back that philosophy with real, actionable guidance.

Terri's career spans more than three decades, and the breadth of it tells you something about how she practices: she has never stopped learning. Before women's health, there was pediatric nursing in Dallas, where she earned Pediatric Nurse of the Year honors and climbed to expert-level clinical status. Before that, there was neonatal intensive care, radiation oncology, and surgical nursing, each chapter adding another layer to her understanding of the female body across every stage of life. When Terri completed her graduate nurse practitioner program at Arizona State University, she brought all of that accumulated knowledge with her, logging clinical hours across high-risk obstetric offices and gynecological practices. Today, she has built a particular expertise in hormone replacement therapies, including bio-identical, compounded, and pellet approaches, a niche that demands both precision and the patience to listen carefully to what each patient is experiencing. What patients notice first about Terri is her directness. She is warm, often funny, and refreshingly honest. After 30-plus years at the bedside, she has little use for vague reassurances; she would rather give you the real picture and help you decide what comes next.

Theresa's nursing career began at BYU, where teaching human anatomy to fellow students revealed an early instinct she still carries: the drive to help people understand their own bodies. After earning her Family Nurse Practitioner degree from the University of Arizona, she built a clinical range that few practitioners can match, oncology, emergency medicine, neurology, surgery, and wilderness-based therapeutic care with the ANASAZI Foundation. What ties it all together is a thread of service. Whether providing in-home care for elderly patients in Arizona or delivering primary care and nutrition education to women and children in Haiti and Guatemala, Theresa gravitates toward the people most often overlooked. That same ethos shapes her work in women's health today, where she brings both breadth of experience and a quiet determination to make every patient feel seen.

Victoria grew up in Southern California, where she balanced academics with competitive tennis, eventually serving as team captain at Cal State Los Angeles. That experience taught her something that carries into her clinical work today: discipline, teamwork, and showing up consistently for the people counting on you. After earning her degree in Child Development, she spent time as an EMT with American Medical Response in Los Angeles, running 911 calls and event coverage. The fast-paced, high-stakes environment confirmed she was built for medicine, and she headed across the country to Clarkson University in upstate New York for her PA training. A women's health rotation in Arizona brought her to the desert, and something clicked. Victoria is now building her practice here, bringing a research-minded approach shaped by her master's project on how provider presentation affects patient trust. She is excited to be part of the MomDoc team and to care for women at every stage.
