Dr. Schneider is a Denver native and a board-certified OB-GYN. She earned her undergraduate degree in chemical engineering at the University of Colorado. She obtained her medical degree from University of Colorado Health Science Center, where she also completed her OB-GYN residency. Following residency, Dr. Schneider completed a family planning fellowship at University of New Mexico.
Dr. Schneider chose obstetrics and gynecology because she wants to take care of women throughout their lives, from adolescence to menopause. She is an active member of the Colorado Medical Society and the Colorado Section of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), serving in leadership roles including the Chair, Vice Chair and Legislative Chair. She is actively engaged in the political process advocating for reproductive healthcare issues at local and national levels.
She values being there for pregnant persons dealing with difficult diagnoses such as miscarriages, or learning that their pregnancy is affected by a severe anomaly. Dr. Schneider believes these patients should have a doctor they feel comfortable with taking care of them during these challenging times. She works hard to ensure that each patient is in a safe environment.
Additionally, she values taking care of patients through shared decision making, respecting sexuality and gender identity, and concern for pain management during office procedures.
