Mona Ghobrial, MD - Powell Memorial Clinic

I am a physician excited about partnering with patients to optimize their health. I am also interested in helping patients understand their medical problems so that they do not feel confused about their medications or treatment plans. I can care for patients of all ages! I have wanted to be a physician for as long as I can remember. I loved my childhood pediatrician and told my parents that I wanted to become a pediatrician just like him. During medical school I realized that I also loved adult medicine, so I decided to specialize in both internal medicine and pediatrics. My approach to patient care is that I will partner with my patients to improve and maintain their health. I will use my medical knowledge to make recommendations on the best treatment plan, but also to teach patients about their medical problems so that they feel empowered. I have special interests in comprehensive weight management, lifestyle medicine, maternal health, and caring for children and adults dealing with complex medical conditions and special needs. Outside of work, I am very involved at my church and I love spending time with friends and family. My husband and I love being active outdoors. We especially enjoy the beach.

I chose to become a physician to make a meaningful impact on patient’s health and improve their quality of life. I especially enjoy the privilege of teaching patients about their bodies and collaborating with them on their healthcare decisions. As a family medicine physician I enjoy the versatility of providing care to the entire family, from pediatric to adult medicine, geriatrics, prenatal care and women health. My philosophy for primary care is preventative medicine and treating the patient holistically. There is a strong emphasis on exercise and food as medicine in my practice. I believe in empowering patients by teaching them about their complex medical problems and management. When I'm not at work, E enjoy spending time with my family, trying new foods and traveling
