About me

Hello! My name is Dr. Iyer, and I am one of the obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) doctors at Kaiser Permanente’s West Los Angeles Medical Center.

Biography

I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago, went to college in beautiful Ithaca, New York, at Cornell University. My path to medicine was nontraditional. I worked in medical research for 3 years and the pharmaceutical industry in both Chicago and San Francisco. It was my job working as a research coordinator for clinical trials in San Francisco that inspired me to pursue a career in patient care. After that job, I attended medical school at Texas Tech University in rural Lubbock. I never thought I would become an obstetrician/gynecologist, but the OB/GYN department at Texas Tech inspired me to pursue this field.


After medical school, I did my residency at Kaiser Permanente’s Los Angeles Medical Center and loved it so much I stayed in the Kaiser Permanente system.

About my practice

I love OB/GYN because of the fast-paced, exciting environment. I get to work as a primary care doctor and surgeon, and get to use many different skills in my practice as a general obstetrician/gynecologist. For example, I can go from delivering a baby, to doing a hysterectomy, to removing ovarian cysts, to taking care of pelvic pain or vaginal infections all in one day.

 

I am interested in many different aspects of being an obstetrician/gynecologist, including complicated deliveries/prenatal care, family planning, transgender care, mental health, and gynecological surgery/office procedures.

How I thrive

I love taking advantage of all Los Angeles has to offer. You can find me at the beach, hiking in the Verdugo Mountains, playing guitar, or gardening with my partner.

 

I have a passion for taking care of members, so I am always happy to answer any questions you may have. Welcome to my practice!
