Through every stage of life, generations of women in Winston-Salem and surrounding areas have come to love and trust the ultimate care that Hawthorne Obstetrics & Gynecology provides.

A lifetime of wellness is always their top priority, nurturing families in a variety of capacities. Hawthorne OB-GYN providers also deliver newborns and perform surgery at either Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist or Novant Health Forsyth Medical Center – convenient to everywhere in the Triad.

Their newest addition, Dr. Ariana Patras, DO, joined the practice at the end of August and brings a down-to-Earth passion in caring for women, and therefore, their entire family. She is already devoting herself to the “entire lifetime” of her female patients, from adolescents to teens, to child-bearing years and on to menopause where, yes, you do still need the care of a gynecologist!

“Women really are the center of the family,” shares Ariana. “I feel like I’m treating the entire dynamic of her family, throughout the entire journey!”

Ariana graduated with honors from Hofstra University in 2014 with a degree in biology and a minor in biochemistry on a presidential academic scholarship. She earned her medical degree from Rowan University School of Medicine in 2020, then completed her OB-GYN residency at Monmouth Medical Center in Long Branch, NJ in 2024. 

As she grew up on the New Jersey shore and is brand new to the Winston-Salem area, Ariana and her fiancé, Scott (a gastroenterology fellow at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center) are happy to establish roots here while planning for a spring wedding.

“Community is important to us, and I love that Hawthorne is so family oriented. Along the way, someone had suggested I ‘find my people’ – and I have found that here, not just in colleagues, but also in my patients,” she adds. “People make all the difference, and I have felt so supported, especially being new to the area.”

As a third year medical student, Ariana knew immediately that she liked hands-on surgery – and she delivered a baby on the second day of her rotation – sealing the deal! She is certified in the Da Vinci robotic surgical system which provides minimally invasive surgery in a hospital setting, potentially for hysterectomies or fibroid tumors. The process is similar to laparoscopic surgery but with a quicker recovery. The practice is invested in state-of-the-art technology and regularly adds new services to that end.

Hawthorne OB-GYN is dedicated to providing the highest level of care possible by listening to your questions, understanding your needs and guiding you to establish and achieve individual wellness goals. Services the practice provides include preventive care, well woman exams, complete family planning, preconception, infertility services, ultrasounds, mammography and expert diagnosis and treatment of complex issues like pelvic organ prolapse and maintaining optimal wellness during and after menopause.

New patients of any age are always welcome to join the Hawthorne family! Hawthorne Obstetrics & Gynecology is conveniently located at 4605 Country Club Road in Winston-Salem. Call them at 336.768.3632 for an appointment, or schedule online at Hawthorneobgyn.com. Office hours are Monday through Thursday 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. and Friday 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m.
