Dr Virina is the absolute best. She is so easy to talk to and takes the time to hear my concerns and make a clear plan for next steps. I would recommend her to anyone looking for OB care.

Dr. Varuna is the best! I felt a little uncomfortable before my last appointment, a slightly unusual problem, but Dr Virina put my heart and mind at ease right away. She helped me feel more comfortable, and I’m extremely grateful for her knowledge and expertise. Can’t say enough good things.
I’ve also had excellent care with the other doctors in the past, but Dr. Virina is my regular go to. I’m grateful to have found this practice.

Dr Virina immediately put me at ease. As a sexual abuse survivor, gyne visits can be stressful but I felt absolutely comfortable in her care. She has such a clear way of explaining her treatment rationale, while still stressing that I had choices.
