​We are full-time academic faculty members of the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. We are committed to helping our students, residents, fellows, and allied health professionals maximize their potential and develop into future leaders in obstetrics, gynecology, and women's health.
We actively teach in the medical school and residency program, and we train fellows within the Section of Family Planning and Contraception.

We are dedicated to training future leaders, who will advance women’s health care by providing exceptional clinical and surgical care and serve as educators and mentors. Learn more about our work via the Feinberg department site's education section.
