At Tulane University School of Medicine, an academic medical center renowned for its pioneering research and exceptional patient care, Dr. Amber Naresh stands out as a prime example of the institution’s commitment to innovative healthcare. A board-certified Obstetrician-Gynecologist with a fellowship in Reproductive Infectious Diseases, Naresh specializes in managing pre-cancers of the female genital tract, particularly HPV-related cervical, vaginal, and vulvar dysplasia.
After earning her medical degree at Tulane, Naresh honed her expertise during her residency and fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center – Magee Women’s Hospital. She returned to New Orleans as a provider and Associate Professor in Obstetrics and Gynecology at Tulane Medicine, adding to their network of highly trained specialists.
The physicians and scientists of Tulane Doctors– Women’s Health, including Naresh, take a comprehensive and personalized approach to women’s healthcare. These specialists are at the forefront of areas such as minimally invasive surgery, maternal-fetal medicine, reproductive endocrinology, fertility, and gynecologic oncology.
Naresh’s practice encompasses the depth and breadth of Obstetrics & Gynecology, but HPV-related work is an area of interest and specialization, especially in her research. Naresh is dedicated to understanding how HPV, a prevalent issue affecting over half of the U.S. population, interacts with the immune system and evolves into cancer. Her contributions have been vital in formulating national guidelines for cervical cancer screening and management in the United States. Furthermore, her establishment of a research registry at Tulane University School of Medicine is expanding the understanding and treatment of HPV-related diseases.
Embracing the latest technologies, Naresh’s clinical expertise now includes the da Vinci robotic surgical system. This advancement allows for minimally invasive surgeries, accommodating a wider range of patients and ensuring quicker recovery, less blood loss, and reduced pain. From treating fibroids to providing gender-affirming care, Naresh utilizes the most modern methods available when caring for her patients.
Naresh’s work exemplifies Tulane‘s ethos as an academic medical center — a place where groundbreaking research and innovative treatment meet exceptional patient care. Her efforts are not just advancing the field of HPV-related diseases but Tulane Medicine’s mission of fostering a healthier, more inclusive future.
