Dr. Audrey Koh enjoys engaging her patients in healthful lifestyles. She believes in patients taking charge of their health by adopting and maintaining healthy life habits. She offers preventive health screenings and evidence-based medical care. In some instances, interventions with medication, complementary medical treatments or surgery are needed; she guides the patient through this process.
Dr. Koh provides personalized, non-judgmental, comprehensive service. With the goal of providing as much obstetrics and gynecologic care possible in a friendly office setting, Dr. Koh and her associates are continually updating equipment and minimally-invasive techniques. With in-office ultrasound, colposcopy, hysteroscopy (and attendant procedures, including management of excessively heavy periods and sterilization procedures) and fetal heart rate monitoring (for obstetrical high-risk conditions), many conditions that would otherwise need to be treated elsewhere, can be taken care of on-site. Dr. Koh enjoys the diversity of women patients: from adolescents to centenarians; from services for pregnancy avoidance to unwanted pregnancy options to attaining pregnancy (basic to advanced infertility services, including donor insemination); from menstrual disturbances to menopause guidance; from complementary health care to laparoscopic surgery.
Dr. Koh is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Department of OB-GYN at U.C., San Francisco. She received an Outstanding Teaching Award in this capacity, in 2006. In addition to teaching future doctors, she has conducted research and publishes actively in the medical literature.
