About Me
My favorite part about being an obstetrician is working together with women from many different stages of life. With young women, I have the chance to help educate them about contraception and promote healthy lifestyle changes.
Working with obstetric patients allows me to share in one of the most special and wonderful moments in life. Each birth is memorable and miraculous.
My work with menopausal women is one of the most rewarding aspects of my job. This can be the best time in a woman's life, if managed properly as a team. I enjoy educating women about menopause and all of the options available to help make that time of transition much more comfortable.
I believe in working side-by-side with each patient to promote and maintain her health and sense of well-being.
In my spare time, I like to travel, hike and ski.

As of 09/30/2024, Dr. Evans has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
I felt the physician provided very little for my specific needs. She did not perform an exam which probably wasn't needed but she also spent little time discussing my symptoms. I waited 8 months for this specialist appointment and it could easily have been a telephone visit and saved everyone time. Poor use of time and resources. Little interest in my personal care.
Kind, compassionate, skilled
Dr. Evans is so good at what she does!
Dr. Evans is amazing! I have been seeing her for years, and she is the best!
Extremely clinical and cold. Absolutely did not listen to my concerns. I am super discouraged because I had waited MONTHS for this appointment and my care was extremely lackluster.
Dr. Evans Is very knowledgeable, compassionate, great listener and thorough... The VERY BEST!!
I felt dismissed for the non classic menopausal symptoms I am experiencing. I in no way felt I was teaming up with a menopause specialist to partner with me to help in this phase of life. It was very disappointing and I'm currently seeking another Dr.
Dr Evan's was very thorough and took her time. I was very satisfied with Dr. Evans.
Unfortunately, I started menopause at 39 years age. I was referred to a menopause specialist to help with some questions and concerns. I felt the visit was more about the negative things. I've menopause and left feeling very overwhelmed. Yes, I am a 54-year-old woman and maybe not much you can do, but I don't think any patient should leave a practice feeling defeated.
Dr Evans is the best. Knows all my conditions and follows up on all of them. Very easy to talk with. I know she gives me sound medical advice.
I do not believe there were any truly bad experiences. It just seemed to me that Dr. Evan's was quite detached, and I guess that would be normal since she had never met me before. She Informed me that she no longer sees strictly gynecological patients. I had been referred to OSU services by Dr. Jones at Urgent Care in New Albany, and I asked for an empathetic, female gyn when I made the appointment. Dr. Evans just did not seem empathetic in spite of smiling.
Always good!
Excellent
Dismissive, cold, didn't ask questions to gain more insight, just wanted to write me a prescription. No blood work, no anything, just a limited conversation that I felt was cut short. Asked "why are you here" in a tone that portrayed disdain for me. I was referred by my general practitioner for my issues and I have wasted time and money. Did not pick up prescriptions, I'm not certain that is what I need. Would have been nice to discuss other options. All my symptoms were not discussed because I didn't get to communicate them.
Dr Evans is excellent So caring and knowledgeable
Excellent doctor.
Very knowledgeable about my situation, did not appear to judge me about my questions regarding menopause and clearly explained choice of medication
I feel like I can completely trust Dr. Evans to listen to my concerns, show no judgement, and give me the best possible care.
Perfect
Wasn't personal, gave me some info about medication , didn't advise what is the best for me, didn't go deep in my problem
I had an excellent experience and really felt listened to. It was a relief.
Dr. Evans was very curt and quite honestly, very rude. She kept interrupting me.
Extremely knowledgeable. Listened to me and explained treatment options. Followed up in a timely manner to MyChart questions after the appointment.
Dr. Evans is the most kind caring doctor I've ever had. I started seeing her over 25 years ago and she's always looked out for me and my health (not just gynecology but whole health.) She always has very good advice.
Dr Evans knows me, knows my history, is clear on best treatments, procedures based on clinical data.I trust her and try to do exactly what she recommends.
Dr. Evans is always very kind and caring. We usually just see each other once a year, but it's like seeing an old friend. I appreciate how she addresses my concerns and only does the things that are needed but gives me options when appropriate and informs me of things to watch for.
Very thankful for Dr. Evans
Dr. Evans is simply amazing! She's the best!
The provider is not knowledgeable about current best practices in perimenopause. I had waited months thinking I would get help only to be dismissed with outdated medical advice. Telling a woman that she needs to accept that she's getting older instead of providing her with resources and treatment to help with her symptoms is truly unkind and harmful.
Dr. Evans is a phenomenal provider that cares about her patients. It shows every visit, when answering every concern, and even when she asks about our kids. I am thankful for her.
Reliable as always
Dr.Evans was amazing! She listened to everything I had to say, she was kind, understanding and empathetic to my situation! I left with hope of feeling better, which I have not had for years! She explained everything thoroughly and compassionately! I have already recommended her to multiple persons I know that are going through menopause!
My provider is knowledgeable and friendly and listens to my needs and concerns
Dr. Evans was very nice, very respectful, and even concerned about my discomfort level while taking a sample. She expressed empathy with my concerns and asked follow up questions to clearly understand what would be the best treatment option for me. She also made sure I understood all fot he information she provided to me as well as the instructions for the prescriptions she provided. She was very attentive and a practioner any woman would be grateful to have while transitioning into the next phase of life, menopause, which is definitely needed more for the women in my age group.
It felt rushed, and I felt as if my concerns regarding menopause and symptoms were dismissed without any real discussion other than to get my ultrasound and come back for a check up where I may or may not have to have my IUD removed and get a biopsy.
Dr. Evans is THE best! I will be so sad when she retires.
Dr Evans is not only a skilled physician, but is very kind and compassionate.
Didn't listen, to my concerns or help with the problem.
Always excellent
Dr. Evans is an excellent physician. She is extremely knowledgeable and up to date. She addressed all of my needs and concerns and put me at ease during the visit. She is very professional and I highly recommend her.
Excellent care & always really cares about my health & concerns. Makes sure I totally understand everything before I leave
Dr Evans is very knowledgeable and kind. It's such a relief to find a menopause expert who is so well skilled and listens so well. I hope she is training the next generation of physicians and midwives.
Excellent
Dr. Evans is amazing. I recommend her to allOf my friends and my daughter. However, she isn't taking new patients.
Dr Evans is the best. She is the reason I have a healthy adult son and the reason I was completely healed of serious fibroid health problems
Dr. Evans is an amazing doctor and friend. I actually look forward to my appointments with her
