Sherley Marceus MD

What made you want to become a health care provider or what is your earliest memory of wanting to be one?

I remember as a child I used to love taking care of anyone that had a cut. I would place bandages on every cut I saw. My late grandfather started calling me doctor. Since that time, I would go around stating I am a doctor.

What do you love most about your specialty? / Why did you choose your specialty?

I love the fact that I have an essential role in bringing life into the world. I chose to become an Obstetrics Gynecologist due to the fact that I saw a woman giving birth my third year medical school rotation. I was amazed by the event and made the decision to pursue a career in that field.

How do you connect with your patients?

I engage my patients to help them become active participants in the decision making during their care.

What are your interests outside of the office (hobbies, activities)?

I love going to the movies, spas, shopping, site seeing, traveling, and reading.

What is your advice for your patients?

I tell patients to always make the decision regarding their care that feels right inside and what is beneficial to them.
