Profile

When she’s not caring for women, Dr. McGaw loves cooking—all different types of cuisine—and gardening. And, she loves to travel. She’s been to France and Italy and volunteered on a medical mission trip to Peru. Her time caring for women in Peru gave her an incredible appreciation for our medical resources and what we can offer women here in the United States. Dr. McGaw is a huge Tar Heel basketball fan.
