Women's Reproductive Healthcare

Welcome to the UAB Division of Women’s Reproductive Healthcare (WRH). Founded in 2007, the division is committed to the academic tripartite mission of clinical care, education, and scholarship. The division includes academic specialists in general obstetrics and gynecology, pediatric and adolescent gynecology, family planning, minimally invasive gynecology, and gynecologic ultrasound. Our academic offices are located within the UAB Women and Infants Center.

Our team of board-certified or board-eligible physicians and women’s health nurse practitioners provide the complete spectrum of obstetric and gynecologic care to women at all stages of life. Multiple faculty members in the division have been recognized by their physician peers and patients as “Best Doctors” and as “Birmingham’s Best” doctors. In 2021, the UAB Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology was recognized by US News and World Report as the 7th best Gynecology program in America. Ambulatory medical care is provided in multiple convenient locations including the UAB Women and Infants Center as well as UAB Health Centers located in the communities of Gardendale, Hoover, and Leeds. Our pediatric and adolescent gynecology program is provided at the UAB Women and Infants Center and Children’s of Alabama outpatient offices. The division provides routine and specialized obstetric and gynecologic services for women of all ages. To learn more about the services offered by UAB Women’s Reproductive Healthcare click here.

The Division of Women’s Reproductive Healthcare is dedicated to the comprehensive educational mission of the UAB Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. The division actively participates in the training and development of medical students and residents within the department, specifically focusing on ambulatory care, low-risk obstetric care, and surgical benign gynecology. The division supervises the care and directs the operations of the UAB OB/GYN Resident Continuity Clinic. In this clinic, our team of resident physicians, certified nurse practitioners, and attending faculty provide gynecologic care for women from across the state of Alabama and the region in a dedicated office space. Residents and medical students participate in a diverse mix of surgical cases arising from both the faculty practices and the Continuity Clinic patient population.

The division also contains a two-year fellowship in pediatric and adolescent gynecology. The fellowship not only includes education in clinical care of this unique patient population, but also includes protected time for education and research including completion of a novel research project prior to graduation. Please visit our fellowship page for more information.

In 2022, the division started a two-year women’s health research fellowship program for academic specialists in general obstetrics and gynecology. As a part of the program, fellows will have the opportunity to complete a Master’s program curriculum. Please visit our fellowship page for more information.
