About

Deborah Karm, MD, decided on a career in medicine because she is passionate about helping others live a healthy lifestyle. As an OB/GYN she helps guide her patients through some of the major occurences in their lives, managing everything from contraception to pregnancy and delivery, as well as endometriosis, abnormal bleeding and menopause. 

I chose to pursue a career as an OB/GYN because it allows me to take care of my patients in all phases of their lives. I find these long-lasting relationships extremely rewarding.

Dr. Karm is a Long Beach native and is thrilled about this opportunity to serve the community in which she grew up. Though she has a particular interest in preventative medicine, she also operates and performs procedures, including minimally invasive surgery. Upon her completion of her residency at University of California, Irvine, Dr. Karm won the Michael L. Berman Award for Excellence in Gynecologic Surgery. 

During her spare time, Dr. Karm loves to spend time with friends and family. Some of ther other favorite activities include: running, hiking, biking, reading and traveling.
