Dr. Rothberger is board-certified in obstetrics and gynecology and is currently a third-year fellow in maternal fetal medicine. She focuses her practice on high-risk pregnancies. She is a fellow with the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and a member of the Society for Maternal Fetal Medicine.

She strives to achieve these goals by listening to her patients and taking time to answer questions. With this in mind, Dr. Rothberger hopes to help her patients make treatment choices that are best suited for their pregnancy and family goals.
High-risk pregnancies, including those complicated by maternal medical conditions, prior pregnancy problems and fetal diagnoses.
Dr. Rothberger is originally from North Carolina. When she is not in the hospital, she enjoys spending time with her husband and family. She especially enjoys taking advantage of the beautiful outdoor surroundings of the Pacific Northwest by hiking, biking or walking her dog in the neighborhoods.
Women with high-risk pregnancies, including maternal and fetal conditions that put the pregnancy at risk for complications. She cares for women with medical concerns such as high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease and immune disorders during their pregnancy. She also takes care of women with prior high-risk pregnancy conditions such as preterm delivery, preterm rupture of membranes and preeclampsia.
She is a member of the Prenatal Diagnosis Clinic team, where she cares for women with pregnancies complicated by birth defects or unique fetal diagnoses.
Infection-related preterm birth. She is currently studying novel vaginal bacteria and their relation to preterm labor, uterine infection and early rupture of membranes.
She is actively involved with teaching both residents and medical students. She is among the faculty for the second-year medical student course, Human Biology Reproductive System. She gives lectures to third-year medical students as well as residents. Her teaching philosophy is that providing an opportunity for training knowledgeable and skilled practitioners is essential to keep the future of science and medicine at the cutting edge.
