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. Brittany Stam grew up in Arizona and studied physiology at the University of Arizona before she and her husband moved to the tropical island of St. Maarten, where she earned her medical degree from the American University of the Caribbean. While it was difficult to leave paradise, it was time for the next step. Dr. Stam spent the next four years in Brooklyn, completing her residency at Staten Island University Hospital, where her peers and the nursing staff recognized her with multiple awards for patient care and service. She also served as Chairman of the Perinatal Collaborative Care Council. Eager to return to their Arizona roots, Dr. Stam joined MomDoc and happily left her winter clothing in New York. She describes herself as a "true generalist at heart", she loves both obstetrics and gynecology and has a strong interest in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.

For more than 25 years, Dr. Christine Brass-Jones has been the kind of physician other doctors look to for guidance. She built and led a thriving practice over two decades, earning the trust of patients and colleagues alike, which is how she ended up serving as Chief of Staff at Banner Ocotillo. But the leadership roles are just one part of the story. What keeps Dr. Brass-Jones in this field is the relationship side of medicine: being there for a patient's first pregnancy, then welcoming them back years later for a different chapter. She brings that long-view philosophy to MomDoc's Tempe office, where she cares for women through every stage of life with the steady confidence that comes from having seen just about everything.

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.

Before Dr. Shaw ever set foot in a medical school, she was running calls as a volunteer paramedic with the Fredericksburg Rescue Squad and teaching math and science to middle schoolers. Both roles shaped the physician she would become: someone who stays calm under pressure and knows how to explain complicated things in plain language. She studied mathematics and biology at Mary Washington College, earned her MD from Eastern Virginia Medical School, and completed her OB/GYN residency at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia, where she served as Administrative Chief Resident. Her research on thrombophilia-related pregnancy loss and paternal ethnicity as a preeclampsia risk factor has been published in two of the field's leading journals. In Arizona, Dr. Shaw has become a physician leader, steadily taking on roles that let her improve care not just for her own patients but across entire hospital systems. In January 2026, she began a two-year term as Chief of Staff at Banner Ironwood Medical Center, and she chairs MomDoc's Quality Assurance Committee. Through it all, she remains a clinician first, still energized by the daily work of guiding women through pregnancy and gynecologic care.

Dr. LaShonda Carlton took the long way to medicine, and her patients are better for it. Raised in Detroit, she earned her chemical engineering degree from the University of Michigan and spent several years in the corporate world at Hercules Inc. and Pfizer. But something was missing. The precision and problem-solving that made her a strong engineer kept pulling her toward a different kind of challenge, one with higher personal stakes. She enrolled at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine, and once she arrived, she leaned all the way in, publishing research on liver ischemia and reperfusion, traveling to Peru to assist with cleft lip and palate surgeries, and serving on the Dean's Diversity Advisory Committee. She completed her OB/GYN residency training across two programs, at the University of Kentucky and at Rutgers in New Jersey. Dr. Carlton's engineering background is not just a fun origin story. It shaped how she approaches patient care: methodical, thorough, always looking at the full picture. At MomDoc's Chandler office, she brings that analytical rigor together with the empathy of someone who understands what it means to reinvent yourself, and who believes every woman deserves a physician willing to think deeply about her care.

Dr. Boyce's path to medicine began far from the Chicago hospitals where he would eventually train. Born and raised in the Republic of Panama, he came to the United States for his education and never looked back, though the journey took him to more places than most physicians see in a career. After medical school at the University of Illinois and residency rotations at Mount Sinai Hospital in Chicago and Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, Dr. Boyce took a turn that set him apart: he joined the U.S. Air Force. Stationed at Loring Air Force Base in Maine, he served as Chief of OB/GYN Service at the 42nd Strategic Hospital, caring for military families in one of the most remote posts in the country. That experience, delivering babies in a setting where resourcefulness mattered as much as technique, left a lasting mark on his practice style. After his military years, Dr. Boyce built a private practice in Wisconsin before relocating to Arizona, where he co-founded Westridge OB/GYN. He has also carried his skills abroad, providing surgical care on medical missions in Peru. Dr. Boyce first worked with MomDoc in 2013, stepped away for a time, and returned with the conviction that he still has more to give.

Dr. Cordeiro grew up in Catalao, a small town in the Brazilian state of Goias, before her family moved to Atlanta when she was twelve. Navigating a new country and a new language at that age shaped something that still defines her practice today: an instinct for meeting patients where they are, no matter the barrier. She studied biology at Kennesaw State University, then traded Georgia for the Caribbean, attending medical school at St. George's University in Grenada, where the island setting belied the rigor of the program. After earning her degree with high honors, Dr. Cordeiro returned stateside for residency at Staten Island University Hospital in New York, where she trained in robotic, laparoscopic, and vNOTES surgical techniques and conducted research on induction of labor outcomes. Dr. Cordeiro is drawn to the full continuum of women's health, from contraception and fertility counseling to menopause management, and she brings particular skill in minimally invasive approaches to gynecologic surgery. She cares for patients in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French, a reflection of the multicultural journey that brought her to medicine in the first place.

Dr. Mily Nieves's path to women's health took her across three countries and two languages. She studied biology at the University of Puerto Rico before heading to Guadalajara, Mexico, where she earned her medical degree from the Autonomous University. That cross-cultural training shaped her approach to bilingual care over her 26-year career, meeting patients where they are, in every language and in every sense. Dr. Nieves completed her OB/GYN residency at Louisiana State University in New Orleans, then made her way to Arizona to join MomDoc. She brings a breadth of perspective that comes from learning medicine in different healthcare systems, and her patients appreciate the thoughtful, warm, and unhurried way she connects with them.

Dr. Mogor is an East Valley native who took a winding, research-driven road to the operating room. At Arizona State University he studied kinesiology and human physiology, and at the University of Arizona he earned a master's in cellular and molecular medicine, spending his thesis work investigating how hydroxyurea affects red blood cell behavior. That deep dive into bench science gave him something that still shows up in his clinical practice: an instinct for asking why, not just what. Medical school at the University of Arizona reinforced his commitment to underserved communities, he graduated with distinctions in both community service and rural health. During residency in El Paso, Dr. Mogor served as chief resident and honed his skills in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, presenting his work at national conferences alongside the AAGL and the American College of Surgeons. Today, Dr. Mogor's clinical interests span minimally invasive surgery, gynecologic oncology, and high-risk pregnancy. He is a published researcher with peer-reviewed work in both OB/GYN and surgical oncology, but what excites him most is translating that knowledge into better outcomes for his patients right here in the Valley where he grew up.

Dr. Andino grew up in Naranjito, a small mountain town in the Puerto Rican countryside, where the pace of life was slow but his curiosity was anything but. As an undergraduate at the University of Puerto Rico, he dove into research on treatments for congenital myasthenic syndrome, early evidence of a mind drawn to solving problems at the molecular level. Medical school took him to the Caribbean island of St. Kitts, and a graduate certificate in public health broadened his lens beyond the exam room. But it was residency at Saint Luke's Episcopal Medical Center in Ponce that sharpened his clinical identity. There, Dr. Andino gravitated toward minimally invasive gynecologic surgery and robotics, served on the surgery committee, and coordinated the obstetric emergencies simulation workshop, equal parts technician and teacher. His research spans cervical ripening, induction of labor, and the management of severe preeclampsia, reflecting an interest in the moments when obstetric care demands both precision and calm. Dr. Andino is bilingual in English and Spanish, and he brings to every patient encounter the same quality he credits to his upbringing in Naranjito: the belief that good care starts with really knowing the people you serve.

Dr. Partridge grew up in Cheyenne, Wyoming, and studied zoology, chemistry, and Spanish at Brigham Young University before earning his medical degree from the University of Colorado. He has been part of more than 20,000 pregnancies over the course of his career, a number that speaks less to statistics and more to the thousands of families who trusted him with one of the most important moments of their lives. That kind of sustained dedication earned him the respect of his peers, and in 2002 he was elected Chief of Staff at Chandler Regional Hospital, one of only two OB/GYN physicians to serve in that role. Now focused on gynecologic care at MomDoc's Chandler office, Dr. Partridge brings decades of clinical wisdom and the steady presence of a physician who has truly seen it all.
