Biography

She has worked in the Richmond area as a nurse practitioner, providing obstetrical and gynecological services to women. She also has general surgery and psychiatric nursing experience, and she worked as a labor and delivery nurse for many years.

Elizabeth is skilled in all aspects of women’s health with a focus on patient education. She likes helping adolescent girls better understand and care for their changing bodies. Likewise, menopause education is another area of interest. She is skilled in annual and problem-focused gynecologic exams.

As a mother and a former labor & delivery nurse of many years, Elizabeth understands birth and motherhood, through professional and personal experience. She has a special passion for obstetrics work and caring for mothers-to-be—from before they conceive to the time they give birth. Though not a lactation consultant, she has also helped many women with breastfeeding. She joined Virginia Women’s Center in 2006.
