Her medical interests include limited interventions during labor and childbirth as long as it is safe for the mother and baby. She wants her patients to remember, "Your body knows what it's doing!

“Moments in life like pregnancy and childbirth are life changing,” she shares. “I want to be there as a resource and advocate for my patients as they walk through these life-changing moments.”

Dr. Franklin earned her Bachelor of Arts degree as a dance major at Washington University of St. Louis in St. Louis, Missouri.
