About me
Originally from Eugene, Oregon, Geffan is thrilled to return to the PNW for residency at OHSU. She attended Stanford University where she studied Human Biology with a minor in Modern Languages (Spanish and Arabic) and met her husband, JR. After college, she worked in family planning and abortion research in San Francisco while completing post-baccalaureate classes. She stayed in the Bay Area for medical school at the UC Berkeley-UCSF Joint Medical Program, and carried her passion for family planning into her master’s thesis research examining provider responses to patients requesting IUD removal. Geffan has a strong interest in medical education and participated in the Health Professionals Pathway. In her free time, Geffan enjoys living room dance parties with JR and their two kids and spending time outside. She also loves snuggling their cat, Jupiter (who does not enjoy the living room dance parties).

Insurance
Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher.
