Dr. Moona Arabkhazaeli

Dr. Arabkhazaeli is joining Minnesota Women's Care after completing a fellowship in Minimally Invasive Gynecology Surgery. She chose this area of specialization because of the enormous benefit it has to her patients. 

She says, "While I am well trained in all aspects of OBGYN care, I have a particular interest in abnormal uterine bleeding, endometriosis, pelvic pain, and fibroids. If surgery is needed, I have the specialized skills to offer a minimally invasive approach – one which which minimizes complications and hastens recovery – allowing patients to return to their lives more quickly."

Dr. Arabkhazaeli has shown extraordinary leadership and scholarship during her education and training. She has been the Chief Resident in the OBGYN and Women's Health Department at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and has been recognized for her teaching skills. She is well-published, with a long list of presentations and lectures to her credit. 

Dr. Arabkhazaeli's View of Patient Care

Dr. Arabkhazaeli has a fundamental understanding of women's needs and how their physical issues can impact their quality of life. Here's what she says about her approach:

"I chose the field of OBGYN for the opportunity to care for women in different phases of their life, and work together to help them navigate momentous, challenging, or sensitive gynecologic issues. I aim to empower women to achieve optimal health by providing personal, comprehensive, and compassionate care, and to engage patients in their care through open communication and an individualized approach.  

Finally, I am a life-long learner who is dedicated to providing innovative health care, employing recent technological advances and the most up-to-date and evidenced-based medical care."
