About me
Originally from Eugene, Oregon, Geffan is thrilled to return to the PNW for residency at OHSU. She attended Stanford University where she studied Human Biology with a minor in Modern Languages (Spanish and Arabic) and met her husband, JR. After college, she worked in family planning and abortion research in San Francisco while completing post-baccalaureate classes. She stayed in the Bay Area for medical school at the UC Berkeley-UCSF Joint Medical Program, and carried her passion for family planning into her master’s thesis research examining provider responses to patients requesting IUD removal. Geffan has a strong interest in medical education and participated in the Health Professionals Pathway. In her free time, Geffan enjoys living room dance parties with JR and their two kids and spending time outside. She also loves snuggling their cat, Jupiter (who does not enjoy the living room dance parties).

Insurance
Before scheduling an appointment
- Check your network. If you have health insurance, call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
- Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.
If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.
