On Fridays, we wear our favorite teams! It’s such a fun football season tradition in our office. We enjoy the friendly rivalries and sometimes it helps us learn more about each other! Happy Preseason to all who celebrate! 🖤🩵 Go Jags!

I also randomly grabbed a new pen today and it just happened to be teal 💁🏼‍♀️

Speculums…a gynecologist’s best friend! I have all different shapes, sizes and materials to provide a thorough and more comfortable exam for my patients.

Yesterday, President Trump signed an executive order calling for changes to the childhood vaccine recommendations, among them separating the measles, mumps, and rubella, or MMR, vaccine into individual shots.

These changes go against decades of evidence and science and could lead to a reduction in vaccination rates that would put children at risk. ACOG President Camille A. Clare, MD, MPH, CPE, FACOG, outlines these concerns in her response to the executive order.

The current vaccine schedule provides critical guidance to physicians working to protect children from serious illness and disease. It’s based on decades of scientific evidence. We urge the administration to rescind this executive order and ensure that childhood vaccine recommendations remain grounded in scientific evidence and clinical expertise.

Tubal Ligation vs. Salpingectomy: What’s the difference? 🩺✨

A landmark JAMA study highlighted a significant reduction in tubo-ovarian cancer risk when complete salpingectomy is performed instead of traditional tubal ligation. Because of this, "opportunistic salpingectomy" is now widely recommended during routine sterilization procedures as well as other pelvic surgeries, like hysterectomies.

Here is how the two procedures compare:

Tubal Ligation (Traditional "Tying the Tubes")
What it is: Tying, clamping, or removing only a *portion* of the fallopian tube.
How it's done: Commonly performed postpartum via a small incision under the belly button, laparoscopically, or during a C-section.
Techniques: Includes cautery, Filshie clips, Falope rings, or partial removal (such as Pomeroy or Parkland techniques).

Salpingectomy (Complete Removal)
What it is: Surgical removal of the *entire* fallopian tube rather than just a segment.
How it's done: Easily performed across various surgical approaches using suture techniques or modern energy devices.
The Big Advantage: Complete removal eliminates the tissue where many high-grade ovarian cancers originate, providing powerful cancer prevention alongside permanent contraception.

As an Ob/Gyn, I am a surgeon. All Ob/Gyns are! Did you know that? In the obstretric world I perform cesarean sections, dilation and curettages (D&C), and am trained to place cerclages as well. In the gynecology world, we do a multitude of surgeries as well. D&C is also on this list but usually due to bleeding issues rather than miscarriage. I can remove your tubes (we used to “tie” them), so that you have a permanent form of birth control and this can also be completed after delivery or during a c/section. We do all types of hysterectomy including vaginal (no abdominal incisions), laparoscopic (small incisions with a camera) and abdominal (larger incision). I also can remove things like endometriosis, ovarian cysts, ovarian masses, ovaries and fallopian tubes, fibroids, scar tissue and more that is causing my patient to have pain or other symptoms. Sometimes we’ll even do combined cases with the General Surgeons. Being able to do surgery is one of the reasons I chose ob/gyn. I love the variety it gives me. I love healing with my hands. I love making a dramatic difference in my patient's lives.

Why do I mention this? Because I can't tell you how many times my patient has been shocked to find out that yes, I will be the one to perform the surgery she needs! Sure, there are some that practice Gyn that no longer do surgery, but they were trained as surgeons and have chosen to not have it as a part of their current practice.

So now you know! Your Ob/Gyn is a surgeon!

Today marks my 12 year anniversary with our practice! There have been so many changes along the way. But the thing that has never changed is the support and genuine care that I feel from my partners as well as our staff. I am so grateful for that. There’s a reason I came straight from residency and never left. 💙💚

PS we really need an updated picture 😉
