Dr. Washington, a native of Copenhagen, Denmark, graduated cum laude from Boston University with a Bachelors of Arts in Sociology, before attaining her Medical Doctorate from Boston University School of Medicine. She completed an internship in general surgery at Boston University Medical Center and her residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at St. Luke’s Roosevelt Hospital Center in New Your City, NY.

Dr. Washington relocated with her husband, Rev. Joseph E. Washington, and their two daughters to Myrtle Beach, SC in 2002. In March 2003, she cofounded Coastal Carolina OBGYN, LLC and has been providing obstetrical and gynecological care for the women in the Grand Strand area ever since.

Moving towards a more holistic approach, Dr. Washington recently completed 300 hours of acupuncture training by Dr. Tsun-Nin Lee at The Academy of Pain Institute in San Francisco, and has now expanded her practice to include acupuncture. By the summer of 2015, she will be certified to offer bio-identical testosterone and estrogen hormone pellet therapy, prompted by the demands from her many patients.

Dr. Washington is Board Certified by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology and a member of The American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology, American Medical Association as well as the South Carolina Medical Associates. She holds licensure in both New York and South Carolina.
