Outside of work, Dr. Marsh enjoys spending time with her family and supporting her local church community. She also finds joy in mentoring the youth and volunteering at various events.

Why should someone choose you to care for their health?
My patients will feel seen, heard, and understood as we discuss what concerns them the most.

What is the most important thing your patients should expect from their professional relationship with you? What do you expect from them?
They should expect a provider who will listen and share in the management of their conditions. In return, my patients should be open to different perspectives towards optimal health.

How do you spend your valuable personal time when you are not caring for patients?
I love crocheting! I'm currently finishing a bed spread I started in high school.

Why did you choose your specialty and what is its greatest reward?
Managing obesity is personal to me, so I love it when patients see they have an advocate who empathizes and supports them on their health journey.
