2025-2028

Dr. Arora is proudly nominated by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and endorsed by the North Carolina Medical Society and Specialty and Service Society (SSS). She truly believes that our science and public health policy should be evidence-based, equitable and ethical. In an age where not only sexual and reproductive health—but the entire sanctity of the patient-physician relationship—is under attack and subject to intrusion, having an ob/gyn on CSAPH is critical. Dr. Arora has been active in organized medicine since 2006, and 2025 Annual will mark her 39th consecutive national meeting. Over the course of these almost two decades, the AMA has truly become family—not only figuratively, but literally. She met her husband, Hans Arora—a pediatric urologist, at I-07, and their children were founding members of CampAMA.  Dr. Arora is a scientist, public health leader and advocate. She has the expertise, experience and energy needed to serve well and she humbly asks for your vote for CSAPH.
