Saima Ashraf, MD Earns FACOG Credential

Congratulations Saima Ashraf MD, FACOG for obtaining the Fellow of The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (FACOG) certification.  Dr. Ashraf is part of the Ob/Gyn team at Lake Erie Medical Services (LEMS), in cooperation with Brooks Memorial Hospital.  The FACOG credential indicates that Dr. Ashraf provides the highest quality health care and is being kept abreast of the latest medical guidelines, treatments, and techniques in women's health care today. To become a fellow, a candidate must become certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and then nominated to the college by another fellow. Board certification involves a two-part exam, usually taken over a two-year period. The first part is a written exam, which is taken the first year the candidate is "eligible" (typically in the final year of obstetrics and gynecology residency training). The second part is an oral exam, taken the year after the written exam is passed. The oral examination is based largely on a collection of a year's worth of medical and surgical cases known as the "case list".

Dr. Ashraf graduated from Government Medical College Srinagar, Kashmir India.  She completed a postgraduate residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology from the Hurley Medical Center at Michigan State University, and was awarded best resident in minimally invasive gynecology.

For more information or to book an appointment, contact Lake Erie Medical Services at 672-2000.

Congratulations Dr. Ashraf from your Teammates at Brooks!
