Alex Larson, MD,FACOG

About

Dr. Alex Larson received his undergraduate degree from the University of Utah. He then went on to study medicine at The Ohio State University and completed his residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Wexner Medical Center at Ohio State University. With the years spent at those institutions he has learned to ‘bleed red’, or crimson, or scarlet, depending on your perspective.

Dr. Larson has received honors and commendations but has become best known for his listening ear and compassionate care. He strives to maintain that approach to care despite the pressures of current medical practice.

As an OB/GYN the majority of his practice is obstetrical care. However, he has particular interest in the DaVinci Robotics Surgical System, and enjoys helping patients struggling with pelvic prolapse issues. He also provides Endometrial Ablations, VBAC deliveries, and full range of contraceptive planning. Dr. Larson is a fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and diplomate of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Dr. Larson works in both local hospitals and surgical centers.

In his free time, Dr. Larson enjoys road biking, golf, and travel with his family. He also comfortably speaks both Portuguese and Spanish.
