Meet Dr. Corinne Sugihara
“After years of working as an OB/GYN and delivering thousands of babies, I shifted my focus to General Gynecology. In my practice, we listen first, make sure we hear what you have to say and work with you to develop a treatment plan that fits with your life-style and addresses your needs.
You can also find out about my medical aesthetics practice, Casa Esthetica, where we help women look and feel their very best.” – Dr. Corinne Sugihara
A California native, Dr. Sugihara completed her undergraduate studies in Neurobiology at UC Berkeley. She then went on to Medical School at George Washington University on a US Navy scholarship. During her internship at Penn State University’s Hershey Medical Center and her residency at SUNY Stonybrook’s Long Island Jewish Medical Center, in New York, she specialized in OB/GYN.
After completing her training, Dr. Sugihara was called to active duty in the US Navy and was stationed at the Patuxent River Naval Air Station in Southern Maryland. During her four years of active duty, she was made Director of Surgical Services at the base hospital and achieved the rank of Lieutenant Commander.
Once she had fulfilled her military service obligation, Dr. Sugihara went into private practice in San Mateo, California, where her daughter was born. In 1992, she moved to Southern California, where she joined Women’s Healthcare Physicians, with offices in the city of Orange and Newport Beach. Then in 2008, Dr. Sugihara launched her own private practice in her current office at 1441 Avocado Avenue in Newport Beach.
After observing major advances in technology that enable physicians to non-surgically address womens’ quality of life issues, she began a new dimension of her practice that has become the foundation of Casa Esthetica.
With more than 35 years of experience as an OB/GYN, Dr. Sugihara understands the complexities of womanhood and has the tools and the care to assist you with your concerns.
