We’re proud to celebrate Dr. Aldred on becoming ABOM-certified (American Board of Obesity Medicine) 🎉
This advanced certification reflects a deep commitment to preventive, whole-person care—and to addressing the why behind obesity, not just the symptoms.

“Filling gaps in women’s healthcare is a core passion of mine. Desmond Tutu once said, ‘There comes a point where we need to stop pulling people out of the river and instead go upstream to understand why they are falling in.’ Pursuing certification through the American Board of Obesity Medicine represents an important step in equipping myself to practice upstream, preventive care—addressing root causes rather than reacting to downstream disease. I am deeply committed to optimizing health across all stages of life and aligning care with patients’ long-term goals. I look forward to providing this comprehensive, proactive approach to women’s healthcare throughout my career.”

Congratulations to Dr. Aldred on this meaningful achievement and the impact it brings to our patients’ care 💙

Cervical cancer often has no symptoms in its early stages, which is why regular screening is so important. But if your body sends signals like unusual bleeding, pelvic pain, or changes in discharge — don’t wait.

Early evaluations can make all the difference. If something feels off, trust your instincts and talk to your provider.

Why does winter feel harder for so many women?

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) impacts millions — and hormonal changes can make symptoms even more noticeable during perimenopause, pregnancy, postpartum, or while navigating menstrual cycle shifts.

As daylight decreases, your body adjusts in several ways:
✨ Mood pathways (like serotonin): affecting motivation and emotional steadiness
✨ Circadian rhythm: your internal clock that guides sleep and alertness
✨ Hormonal patterns: which play a role in energy, mood, and focus

If you’ve been feeling more tired, down, or out of sync lately, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to wait it out. Your OB-GYN can help you understand what’s normal, what’s hormonal, and what tools may help.

Taking care of your mental health is part of taking care of your whole health. 💗
