Stacey Knox, MD earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology from Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia. She then attended Marshall University School of Medicine where she completed her Master of Science in Biomedical Science with a specialization in Anatomy and furthered her degree to a Doctor of Medicine. She completed an internship in Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University of Chicago and her residency at the University of Maryland.

 

She believes in treating each patient with dignity and compassion. Within her clinical specialty, she works hard to abide by the Golden Rule, treat each patient as you would like to be treated. She treats her patients with respect and considers being a woman a special superpower.

 

Dr. Knox’s style of care was greatly influenced by her relationship with a former patient during her treatment for ovarian cancer. Through this process she learned about the importance of forming a meaningful connection with each patient and that even a small gesture can have a large impact on her patients’ emotional wellbeing. She prides herself on patient care beyond their diagnosis. 

 

Dr. Knox has had a relationship with Southcoast Health for over 20 years as a surgeon and Obstetrician at St. Luke’s Hospital. Due to her special interest in female anatomy, she is now focusing her practice on gynecology and pelvic surgery. 

 

When not working, Dr. Knox enjoys riding horses and traveling the world with her family. She has combined her passion for travel and medicine, in the past, by volunteering in Rwanda working with a group of Urogynecologists to teach prevention and treatment of obstetrical fistulas.
