Doctors in the White Mountains

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.

Diondria's road to midwifery started in the Navy, where she learned the kind of discipline and adaptability that would define her career. After her service, she earned her nursing degree in Richmond, Virginia, and quickly discovered that maternity care was where she belonged. She went on to complete her Master of Science in Nursing Midwifery at Shenandoah University, then spent years practicing in settings most providers never experience: Tripler Army Medical Center in Honolulu, Northern Navajo Medical Center in Shiprock, and a community OB/GYN practice in rural Georgia. That range of experience, from a military hospital in Hawaii to the Navajo Nation, gave her a rare ability to meet patients wherever they are, both literally and figuratively. Diondria is a certified Centering Pregnancy facilitator who believes in the power of group prenatal care to build community among expectant mothers. She brings full-scope midwifery skills and a calm, steady presence to the Show Low community.

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.
