Blaise Milburn, M.D.’s practice philosophy is to diagnose and treat a patient’s medical problems at their source, while respecting the inherent dignity and value of the patient as a child of God. To accomplish this, Dr. Milburn spends sufficient time with each of his patients to understand their concerns and healthcare objectives. His goal is to work with a woman’s natural menstrual cycle to supplement and restore normal function. This philosophy allows him to tailor treatment to the individual patient, rather than providing a “one size fits all” approach that is so common in the field of Obstetrics and Gynecology.

Regarding obstetrics, Dr. Milburn believes strongly that while the foremost concern is to keep both mother and baby healthy, the strong preference is for natural onset and progression of labor and vaginal birth whenever possible. Induction of labor and cesarean delivery are utilized only when truly in the best interest of mother and baby. This philosophy of practice allows for patience, providing each mother necessary time to move through her labor and delivery process with less interventions.

In addition to his full breadth and depth OB/GYN training, Dr. Milburn also has significant additional training and considerable experience utilizing minimally invasive surgery and natural family planning to treat infertility, endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome, uterine fibroids, etc. His ultimate goal is to fix the underlying cause of the patient’s symptoms in order to enhance quality of life, restore fertility, and achieve pregnancy, if desired. He is looking forward to providing life-affirming medicine for women of the Ohio Valley region.
