MARGUERITE SHIFRIN

Rome Health Prenatal Care, located at 155 W. Dominick St., has added women’s health nurse practitioner MARGUERITE SHIFRIN to its team. She provides the full scope of gynecologic and obstetric care to women in the community. Having grown up in rural New York, Shifrin went on to graduate from Duke University School of Nursing. Excellence in rural and underserved medicine is Shifrin’s calling. Prior to her graduate degree, she worked in a variety of capacities as a nurse in women’s health, starting in 2003 with immersion in a free-standing birth center and spending the next two decades committed to women’s health in a variety of roles including birth and lactation support. Shifrin believes women’s health is foundational to the wellness of the population at large, “ensuring access to quality preconception, pregnancy, and preventive care for women is critical to maintaining our community’s health.”
