Dumisa Melanie Adams - Obstetrics and Gynecology

About Me

Dr. Dumisa Adams began practicing as an Obstetrician/Gynecologist in 2000. She joined Mount Sinai in 2024 focusing on Gynecology. After completing her undergraduate studies at Queen's University, Dr. Adams earned her medical degree from the University of Toronto. She then pursued her internship and residency in Obstetrics & Gynecology with the same institution. As a board-certified physician in Obstetrics and Gynecology, Dr. Adams' clinical interests include contraception and safely temporizing the symptoms of menopause.

In her professional community, Dr. Adams is a Fellow in the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology. She is also involved in academia, where she serves as an Assistant Professor with The Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. Dr. Adams' past research includes traveling to Zimbabwe as an OB/GYN resident to study prophylactic AZT for HIV in pregnancy.

When discussing her time in medicine, Dr. Adams explains that her drive for becoming an OB/GYN stemmed from her mother's role as a midwife. She describes herself as perpetually and fiercely optimistic, and says that everyone should find something to innocently, and wholeheartedly laugh about every day. Outside of her time with patients, Dr. Adams describes herself as an enthusiastic amateur gardener!
