Doctor Valliere - Abortion Physician
Physician

Dr. Sarah Valliere

Dr. Sarah Valliere is a family medicine physician passionate about reproductive access, reproductive justice, and advocacy. She spent the first 26 years of her life as a Texan and was driven into reproductive healthcare by her personal experience with abortion. She desires to empower those making this very personal healthcare decision through education, normalization, and the destigmatization of abortion.
She went to medical school at University of North Texas Health Science Center Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine and then went on to complete a family medicine residency at Northwestern in Chicago. She then pursued a reproductive health and advocacy fellowship with both the Reproductive Health Access Product and Physicians for Reproductive Health in New York City. She always wanted to return to the south to better abortion care and since December of 2019 has been able to provide outstanding contraceptive and abortion care at Camelback Family Planning.
Outside of medicine, she enjoys spending time with her partner and two rescue pups, traveling/exploring, listening to good music, attending concerts, and exploring new places to eat!!

Doctor Zipkin - Abortion Physician
Physician

Dr. Barbara Zipkin

Dr. Barbara Zipkin is an obstetrician-gynecologist who has over 40 years of experience. She travels from southern California to provide abortion care in Arizona whenever we need her. Her compassion, joyous personality and clinical skills make her a perfect fit in our clinic.
She graduated from Northwestern University School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois and completed her obstetrics & gynecology residency at North Shore University Hospital in New York.
She loves coming into work each day. Her favorite part of the job is really getting to know her patients on a deeper level, and she enjoys joking and laughing with them when they are happy and consoling and comforting them when they are down. They say that when you love what you do, you don’t work a day in your life, and she lives this truth every time she sets foot in an exam room. Dr. Zipkin strongly believes in a woman’s right to access the best healthcare possible. Our mission to serve, treat, and educate women falls right in line with her morals as a physician and woman.
Staff love Dr. Zipkin for her love of sugar as she always fully stocks the break room with goodies. She loves spending time with her kids and extended family, telling bad jokes, providing botox to staff (she’s highly trained) and indulging her sweet tooth.
