My Journey in Medicine
All my life until the third year of medical school, I was 100% certain that I would go into general surgery. My father is a surgeon, so it’s in my blood. But all that changed once I went into my clinical rotations and delivered my first baby. That’s when I knew it was what I want to be doing for the rest of my life. Bringing new life into the world is the most rewarding thing there is – there’s truly no comparable feeling!
What I love about obstetrics and gynecology is being able to stand by women’s sides throughout some of the happiest and toughest times in life. With each of my patients, I want to build a bond with them, listen to their stories, provide reassurance, and meet their individual needs. A big goal of mine is to advocate for women everywhere through education and empowerment and help them feel confident in their bodies.
I started posting about women’s health topics on Instagram, Tiktok, and YouTube (@alirodmd) to reach even more women with empowering content. It’s incredible to have this space to connect with people and answer their questions about the female body, pregnancy, STDs, and everything else!
The opportunity to work together with Flo has been amazing. I love collaborating with a like-minded company that is passionate about education and destigmatizing women’s health.
Fun Facts
I was born in Puerto Rico and am fluent in both Spanish and English. When I’m not posting content on socials, or seeing patients, I love to spend time with my husband Cory, exercise, enjoy a good cup of coffee, travel, and cuddle with my dog, Ash!
