A board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist, Dr. Rahman has tailored her practice to meet the needs of women for gynecologic and cosmetic services. After years of practicing obstetrics and gynecology in a variety of large academic settings and locations, she started her own practice – Center for Gynecology and Cosmetics – to focus on her special areas of interest to ensure patients have their best quality of life. She specializes in menopause care, sexual dysfunction, sexual pain, Mona Lisa touch, medical cosmetics and more.
Originally from North Carolina, she attended Duke University for her Bachelor of Science degree in Biology where she also specialized in Women’s Studies. She then continued in her home state at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill for her medical degree. As women’s health care and women’s issues have always been on the forefront of concerns for her, she moved up north for her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at the University of Massachusetts.
After completing her residency, Dr. Rahman made her way out west to Los Angeles, California where she spent four years on the faculty at the University of Southern California, Keck School of Medicine. There, she spent a great deal of her time on resident and medical student education and simulation training in obstetrics and surgery. She also spent her personal time performing medical missions internationally with a variety of international women’s organizations as well as working at the WHO in Switzerland.
Distinguished as a Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (FACOG), the doctor is board-certified in obstetrics & gynecology by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG). The mission of the ABOG is to define specialty standards, certify obstetricians and gynecologists, and facilitate continuous learning to advance knowledge, practice, and professionalism in women’s health.
Through her research and dedication, she is one of the few physicians nationally to receive the designation of ISSWSH (International Society for the Study of Women’s Sexual Health ) Fellow (IF) and is actively involved with cutting edge approaches to sexual pain and sexual dysfunction.
Moreover, Dr. Rahman is an active member of the American College of Aesthetic and Cosmetic Physicians, the International Pelvic Pain Society, and specializes in a multidisciplinary approach to chronic pelvic pain. For midlife women, she is also a specialist in menopause management with the designation of Certified Menopause Physician through the North American Menopause Society (NCMP). She has also taken extra time to explore areas of aesthetic medicine with the American Board of Aesthetic Medicine, including anti-aging and laser technology and improving sexual health through additional work in aesthetic vaginal procedures in southern California.
As for her academic appointments, she serves as a Clinical Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine in downtown Chicago. She previously worked at Northshore University Health Systems, and was on the faculty at the University of Chicago.
Obstetrics and gynecology (OB-GYN) is the medical specialty that encompasses the two subspecialties of obstetrics (covering pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period) and gynecology (covering the health of the female reproductive system – vagina, uterus, ovaries, and breasts).
In her spare time, Dr. Rahman enjoys spending time with her children and family, running outdoors no matter the season, and traveling with her children in tow.
