Dumisa Melanie Adams, MD
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!

Patient Experience Star Ratings and Comments
The Patient Experience Star Rating reflects our patients’ perception of how well their Mount Sinai provider communicated with them during an office visit. The Star Rating is based on patient responses to three questions on a patient experience survey, a standardized questionnaire sent to verified patients and distributed by a third party vendor, Press Ganey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score.
Industry Relationships
Physicians and scientists on the faculty of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai often interact with pharmaceutical, device, biotechnology companies, and other outside entities to improve patient care, develop new therapies and achieve scientific breakthroughs. In order to promote an ethical and transparent environment for conducting research, providing clinical care and teaching, Mount Sinai requires that salaried faculty inform the School of their outside financial relationships.
Dr. ADAMS has not yet completed reporting of Industry relationships.
Mount Sinai’s faculty policies relating to faculty collaboration with industry are posted on our website. Patients may wish to ask their physician about the activities they perform for companies.
