Dr. N’Gouamba is amazing. She takes the time to chat with you about any concerns before getting into the exam. And as someone who gets nervous about going to the gyno, she put me at ease and let the exam go at my pace. I was definitely completely comfortable with her and felt genuinely cared for, which hasn’t always been my experience with doctors. I’d highly recommend seeing Dr. N’Gouamba as your gyno.
Rashida N'gouamba, MD, is a board-certified physician practicing Obstetrics and Gynecology since 2006.
