Nicole Berrigan, MD
Obstetrics/Gynecology

Dr. Berrigan decided to practice obstetrics-gynecology because she could forge relationships with her patients throughout their lifetime. In addition, the surgical facet allowed her to work with her hands, important for a longtime portrait artist such as her.

“I have done research on art in healthcare, specifically what type of art is therapeutic in the gynecological office setting.” Among her artistic endeavors, she created a painting that was hung in an OB-GYN procedure room to help put patients at ease during procedures.

She believes having an artistic mind helps her have specific attention to detail and intuition during surgery. “I won’t finish until I know that I have done the best possible job. Cosmetics are also very important to me, especially because the external skin incision is the only part of the surgery the patient gets to see.”

She says patients can also expect her to be a genuine, caring physician, one who seeks great interpersonal relationships with her patients. “Whenever we can work together to solve a problem, that is a win.”

Dr. Berrigan and her husband, Ryan, enjoy outdoor activities, such as trail running, mountain biking, and standup paddle boarding.
