Dr. Mary Fariba Afsari, DO Class of 2006 and a newly published author, founded FemForward Health with its mobile clinic in 2022 to bring OB-GYN care where it’s needed in the Portland, Oregon area to serve those who are not always well-served through traditional models of medicine.


Her memoir, “Labor: One Woman’s Work,” takes readers on a deeply personal and transformative journey through her life as an OB-GYN, intertwining the complexities of her professional life with the hidden truths of her family’s past and exploring the intersection of medicine, identity, and the enduring search for agency.
