Candice Fraser, MD
About me
I'm a board-certified OB/GYN with over 10 years of experience caring for women of all ages. Born and raised in Trinidad and Tobago, I realized I wanted to become a doctor at age 13 and moved to New York in 2001 to pursue a career in medicine. I'm passionate about empowering women and seek to effect positive change in the lives of all my patients. My superpowers are the trusted relationships I build with my patients and my composure. I dare you to find a cooler gynecologist!
Approach to patient care
My goal is to partner with my patients to build trust and promote wellness. By fostering the right environment, I hope to eliminate any fear or hesitation of coming to the gynecologist. I want patients to feel comfortable sharing the most intimate details of their lives and allow me to be their trusted source of women's health guidance.
