À propos de l'auteur

Melisa Holmes, MD, FACOG is a creative soul with an academic mind who is slow to admit she spent a lot of years as a cheerleader. An Atlanta native, Melisa is a graduate of The University of Georgia (with an art degree in drawing & painting), and earned her MD from the Medical College of Georgia. Following her Ob-Gyn residency at The Medical College of Virginia, Melisa joined the faculty at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) where she held joint appointments in Obstetrics/Gynecology and Pediatrics. As a passionate teacher for residents, medical students and her patients, Dr. Holmes was awarded numerous honors for education including the University-wide Educator-Mentor award and a national award from the American College of Obstetricians & Gynecologists for patient education.

Currently, Melisa divides her time between seeing patients as a Pediatric & Adolescent Gynecologist at Greenville Health System, growing Girlology and Guyology, and spending time with her husband and three children in Greenville, South Carolina. When she's not in "work" mode, she enjoys painting, cooking, playing with her tween daughter, and getting facetime calls from her daughters.
