Methodist Physicians Clinic Women’s Center (bestcare.org) recently welcomed a new doctor to their midst. She knew she wanted to make a difference in the lives of patients and their families after witnessing one of her own family members battle cancer. She enjoys walking with patients through rewarding and challenging circumstances to help them fully understand their health condition and find a treatment plan that meets their personal preferences.
Dr. Shipman enjoys following women through pregnancy and meeting their gynecological care needs throughout the course of their lives.
“One of my favorite things about practice in OB/GYN is just that whole spectrum of care, starting with a new OB visit, transitioning into GYN care and following someone through their lifetime,” she said.
When meeting patients for the first time, Dr. Shipman likes to ask them about their family and interests before learning about their medical history because she believes it’s important for her to know the whole person. Methodist is so excited to have her on their team!
