I grew up in Tehran, Iran, in a very inspirational family. My journey in obstetrics and gynecology began there, where I completed my medical school, and a four years OBGYN residency at Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences. I served as a chief resident and earned the national board award in OBGYN. After residency, I worked as an OBGYN attending in diverse parts of Iran—including Naghan, Shadegan, and Tehran. Despite limited resources and modest compensation, that was a transformative experience that shaped my commitment to strengthening healthcare delivery in marginalized and underserved communities. Later, I moved to the United States as a research fellow at Yale University, where I investigated the role of stem cells in endometriosis using murine models. Transitioning into U.S. residency training, I quickly realized that women’s reproductive struggles are universal. I have cared for patients paralyzed by anxiety after recurrent pregnancy loss, and for mothers who hid their postpartum depression behind forced smiles. In my daily practice, my goal is simple: to make a meaningful difference, and to create a space where women feel safe to share their experiences, genuinely understood, and empowered to take charge of their health with confidence. I am deeply grateful to the mentors, colleagues, family, and friends who have guided me along this journey.
