Frequently Asked Questions

At OBGYN Specialists of North Florida, our philosophy centers around personalized, direct patient care. We believe that every patient deserves a unique approach that considers their individual needs and preferences. Our care is built on two fundamental pillars:

  1. Patient Wellness: We prioritize your overall well-being by focusing not just on treating symptoms, but on promoting long-term health and quality of life. This means listening to you, understanding your goals, and supporting you in achieving optimal wellness.
  2. Evidence-Based Medicine: Our treatments and recommendations are grounded in the latest scientific research and clinical guidelines. By integrating current evidence with our clinical expertise, we ensure that you receive the most effective and up-to-date care available.

In essence, our approach combines personalized attention with rigorous scientific standards to provide you with the best possible care experience.

We believe continuity of care is essential to delivering the highest quality medical care, especially in women’s health and weight management. You won’t be passed between providers — your care will be personal, consistent, and led by a double board-certified doctor who knows your history, listens closely, and partners with you every step of the way.

Our practice model is centered around a collaborative, client-focused approach that integrates evidence-based strategies and personalized care. This approach enables us to maintain a high level of personalized care and access.

Cost transparency (no hidden fees), reduced wait times, personalized care with more individualized treatment plans, and focus on health, not paperwork.

Direct patient care can be more cost effective for patients while it offers lower monthly costs compared to insurance premiums, eliminating the need for co-pays, deductibles, and other out-of-pocket expenses associated with traditional health insurance plans.

Direct care models often emphasize preventive care and early intervention, which can prevent more costly treatments down the line.

Patients can use Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) or Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) to pay for direct care services with pre-tax dollars, making the expenses even more affordable and tax-beneficial.

The best way to contact your provider is by sending a direct email. Please include your name, date of birth, and detailed information about your question to ensure a prompt and accurate response.

Yes, we do! At OBGYN SPECIALISTS OF NORTH FLORIDA, we proudly offer a range of office-based procedures and minor surgeries—providing you with a more convenient, affordable, and patient-centered alternative to hospital-based care. These procedures are performed right in our comfortable office setting, often with minimal downtime, so most patients can return home or back to work within minutes to a few hours.

You’ll receive expert care from our experienced female physician while avoiding the cost and hassle of surgery centers or hospitals.

We are affiliated with several hospitals and outpatient surgery centers for surgical services, including the Baptist Health and Ascension St. Vincent’s systems. We utilize their technology to meet our clients’ needs effectively.
