Kim M. Goodwin, MD is a board-certified OB/GYN in Carlsbad's Aviara corridor, a founding partner of West Coast OB/GYN Inc. since 2002 and a Fellow of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists practicing from 6125 Paseo Del Norte near the Carlsbad Premium Outlets. Her full-spectrum obstetric and gynecological care includes fertility consultation, contraceptive counseling, and menopausal management — services that coordinate with hormonal health specialists including Herway Health + Hormones on the same medical corridor. Brown University awarded her medical degree through the Dartmouth/Brown joint program, followed by an obstetrics and gynecology residency at Women and Infants' Hospital in Rhode Island, where she received the Outstanding Resident Teaching award every year of training. San Diego Magazine has named her a Top Doctor fourteen times through peer nomination, and her Sharp Mary Birch Hospital affiliation provides delivery and surgical privileges at one of California's highest-volume women's hospitals — capabilities that connect to the perinatal mental health network through providers including MotherThrive Therapy for postpartum support. Minimally invasive laparoscopic and da Vinci robotic-assisted hysterectomy using the Si and Xi surgical platforms allows single-site access through a sub-centimeter umbilical incision for complex fibroid removal and endometriosis excision.
