About Rachel Parritz, MD
Care philosophy: My job is complex and I have the rare privilege of being with my patients during their most intimate moments. I see each patient as unique and use each of their stories to help guide us through evidence-based care.
I knew I wanted to be a doctor at a very young age but falling in love with OBGYN took me by surprise in medical school. I was encouraged by my family to pursue this path as they saw my enthusiasm when I left daily before dawn and my excitement when I returned home late at night. I am forever grateful to them for encouraging me to follow my passion. As I’ve grown in my professional life, I’ve been able to form incredible bonds with my patients, walking with them through their journeys of hope and excitement and holding their hands through moments of heartache and despair. My job is complex and I have the rare privilege of being with my patients during their most intimate moments. I see each patient as unique and use each of their stories to help guide us through evidence-based care.
I chose to work with Oakdale OBGYN because of their commitment to excellent obstetric and gynecology care by applying the most recent literature and the newest surgical techniques.
My 2 children and my husband fill my life with laughter, hugs, (and good food). We keep ourselves busy by exploring our St. Paul neighborhood and by traveling far and wide to visit family. I spend my commuting time with audiobooks and I enjoy reading through a good cookbook and trying new exercise videos.
