Prenatal
Lizzie thinks the female body is nothing short of a miracle and believes, “There is nothing more powerful than a mother’s love.”
Seeing woman through pregnancy is what drew Lizzie to become an ObGyn Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner. She loves educating women on techniques for coping with labor and caring for themselves and their children. She has also realized that it can be life-changing and that knowledge and experience can be passed throughout generations.
Gynecological
“Preventative medicine and well-woman visits are critical for helping women be the healthiest versions of themselves,” says Lizzie. She also seeks less invasive solutions for treatment, when needed. “Women have different healthcare needs at different stages of their lives. I like the complexity of the female body and finding the best solutions to problems women face from teen years through menopause.”
Specialty
Lizzie loves adolescent health because she can encourage a healthy lifestyle at an early age. “I like educating teens on sexual health and making good choices. I have the ability to help guide and support them through the process.”
