Dr. Lynae Brayboy, MD is a specialist in reproductive endocrinology, infertility, obstetrics, and gynecology.

Since May 2023 she has been Chief Medical Officer at Ovom Care, which aims at redefining how reproductive care is brought to patients by combining modern in-person care with advanced AI-based technology.
With a biography like that, you know that she's going to have a lot to say about Femtech solutions! In fact, Dr. Brayboy was so generous with her time that she was still speaking to me as she was leaving to attend a consultation.
