Vladim Bobrovnikov, MD

I have had so many experiences as a child and young adult that led me to realize that I wanted to dedicate my life to educating, empowering and mentoring women to become the best versions of themselves. This passion was born out of admiration for my mother’s strength and ability to uplift and encourage everyone around her. My devotion to the specialty of Obstetrics and Gynecology is solidified daily, as I cherish the unique relationships that I develop with my patients. Being a wife, mother, sister, and friend has made me more aware of the many hats women wear daily; as well as how these various roles can impact our spiritual, physical, and mental health. I thus strive to ensure that I take the time to understand my patient’s needs, provide education and address any concerns they may have. I firmly believe in providing patient-centered care and developing treatment plans based on shared decision making. My aim is to continually create a safe space for women to feel empowered to make well informed decisions that will allow them to achieve optimal health and wellness. I enjoy providing the full scope of OBGYN care which includes low and high-risk obstetric care, preventative medicine, treatment of menstrual disorders and other benign gynecologic conditions. I also have a special interest in minimally invasive surgery and family planning. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, dancing, and cooking. I also enjoy event planning and interior decorating.

I chose to become a midwife because of the incredible positive impact that midwives make on public health across the globe. I wanted to help create spaces where families could welcome new members surrounded by love and in their own power. I also wanted to foster a clinical environment where people felt that they were in control of their own bodies when it came to healthcare decision-making. I believe that every person deserves to have their voice heard and valued by their healthcare provider. I believe that having the opportunity to accompany people during rites of passage such as birth is an honor-one that I hold sacred. I believe that increased access to midwifery care is an essential piece of achieving birth equity in the United States. My areas of clinical interest include reproductive justice, birth equity and trauma-informed care. Outside of work, I like to read, bike, travel, and spend time with my family and friends.
